163 Inrix, the international provider of real-time traffic information and connected driving services, has made an offer to acquire 745 ITIS Holdings for US$59 million.

Inrix says the proposed acquisition, which will significantly expand its business into Australia, Brazil, South Africa, Singapore and Russia, with enhanced coverage in the UK, would grow its business exponentially in several areas. “Automakers, mobile companies and other customers are increasingly demanding global traffic and connected driving solutions,” said Bryan Mistele, president and CEO of Inrix. “ITIS is a strategic investment that expands our geographic reach, technical expertise and suite of market-leading technologies to offer customers the best traffic information, more cost-effectively and in more markets.”

Pending approval by ITIS shareholders, the deal is expected to close in late August 2011.
