Founded in 2012, New York-based Via develops technology that powers public transit systems in hundreds of cities across more than 30 countries.
The bulk of its revenue comes from North America, with the remainder from Europe. Its clients include municipalities, transit agencies, transport operators, school districts, universities, and corporations.
Via first confidentially filed for an IPO in late 2021. The company was valued at $3.5 billion in a 2023 funding round led by venture firm 83North. Other major shareholders include Pitango and Exor, the investment firm of Italy’s Agnelli family.

Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Allen & Company, and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as lead underwriters. The company plans to list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol
