    The Volaris Group is rebranding its companies and brands that serve passenger transportation under a new umbrella organization: Modaxo.  

    With more than two dozen companies representing 12 brands, Modaxo comprises 2,000 people, operating from 35 offices in 21 countries around the world. The Oct. 20 launch of Modaxo brings these businesses together under a global banner, with a singular focus and passion to provide the software and technologies that move the world’s people.

    The businesses that make up Modaxo retain their existing brands and continue to service customers in their local markets, but become part of a larger organization with Modaxo, sharing industry knowledge and market understandings to help drive new product innovation and services.

    Businesses under the Modaxo banner include Binary System, Cittati, Empresa1, Holmedal, Imperial, PLANit, Signature Rail, Systemtechnik, TransTrack Systems, Trapeze Group and TripSpark.

    Bill Delaney has been named Modaxo’s CEO. Delaney has a rich history in public transport and emergency services. He started his career within the government sector, running large-scale procurements and projects. Moving to the private sector, Delaney has led companies under both family and private equity ownership models. He has also worked across multiple regions and cultures from Asia Pacific, India, the Middle East, Europe, Africa and North America.

    “Modaxo’s expertise, global bench strength and singular focus on People Transportation make it a great home for technology companies that share our vision to efficiently move the world’s people,” said Delaney. “Modaxo is well positioned to pursue new organic growth opportunities in innovation and explore complementary acquisitions that build upon current capabilities in the quickly evolving mobility market.”

    Modaxo’s roots began more than 30 years ago with the founding of Trapeze Group, a global provider of software and technology solutions for People Transportation. Over the years, Trapeze has been joined by dozens of sister companies focused solely on the daily transportation needs of citizens all over the world.

    Mark Miller, co-founder of Trapeze, CEO of Volaris Group and COO of Constellation Software commented, “Modaxo is the culmination of what was started with Trapeze over three decades ago. The Modaxo team will continue our legacy of helping people to move throughout cities, towns and regions as part of their daily lives.”
