Autotalks develops automotive‑qualified V2X chipsets that provide an advanced, secure, high-performing global V2X communication solution for vehicles and autonomous systems. Its technology is designed to complement sensor data in non-line-of-sight scenarios, rough weather, and poor lighting to improve road safety and coordination among vehicles, motorcyclists, and pedestrians. The company recently launched the ZooZ micro-mobility platform and plans mass deployment of its technology in the coming years. Autotalks is led by CEO Hagai Zyss and is described as a V2X chipset market leader. Financially, the company raised $10M in funding from Foxconn Interconnect Technology (FIT) tied to a strategic collaboration. Autotalks is based in Kfar‑Netter, Israel. Autotalks develops V2X (vehicle‑to‑everything) communications chipsets for connected cars and has recently expanded its product focus to motorcycles.

Autotalks says the funding will allow it to prepare and expand operations for the upcoming start of mass production and to continue developing communication solutions for connected and autonomous vehicles. The company is based in Israel. Management highlighted the strategic interest of new investor Mirai Creation Investment Fund in vehicles as information hubs. Autotalks develops silicon chipsets that enable V2X (vehicle-to-everything) communications for cars.
