Our Founding Story

Our Founding Story

As university students, CEO Amos Haggiag and CTO Eitan Yanovsky were immersed in the world of mathematics and computer science. Theory took a real-world turn with their exposure to public transportation operations. The need to allocate resources over a vast network to move millions of people while navigating countless decisions such as costs, timetables, frequency, and more represented a complex computational problem. The lack of technological innovation in the industry combined with the important social, environmental, and economic role of public transportation led to the founding of Optibus in 2014. 

Our investors

Optibus is the first start-up dedicated to public transportation to attain unicorn status with a valuation of more than $1 billion. Since our founding, we’ve raised $260 million in funding from some of the top venture capital firms in the world. When these investors bet, they bet to win.
