Dublin-based transport technology firm iCabbi has today announced a deal to provide taxi booking and dispatch technology solutions to the largest taxi company in the Nordics, Cabonline.
Cabonline has 4,600 vehicles across the Nordic region and delivers about 16 million trips a year.
iCabbi powers over 100,000 taxis every day around the world.
While already servicing 20% of the Finnish market, the Cabonline partnership will see iCabbi launch in three new Nordic territories.
Further iCabbi expansion into Europe will take place in the coming months starting with the Netherlands and Italy, the company said today.
Today's announcement comes on the back of iCabbi hitting a major milestone in surpassing one billion bookings on its platform earlier this month.
Growth is forecast for 2023 with a number of significant R&D projects set to launch.
This will see iCabbi expand its product innovation team by 50 people over the next 18 months and the company said a recruitment drive is already underway.
"iCabbi is delighted to be chosen as the technology partner of choice by the largest taxi operator in the Nordics, Cabonline," its CEO Gavan Walsh said.
"We're both ambitious companies, looking to push the boundaries of efficiency, innovation and scale for taxi and mobility services. I'm looking forward to delivering Cabonline's digital transformation on the iCabbi platform and I'm confident the partnership will be mutually beneficial," he added.
