Targa Telematics, a global provider of IoT and digital solutions for connected mobility, has announced the consolidation and rebranding of its British subsidiaries under the new name Targa Viasat UK.

This move follows Targa Telematics’ acquisition of Viasat Connect Ltd in 2023. Viasat Connect, originally Enigma Vehicle Systems, has over 30 years of experience in stolen vehicle recovery and the construction sector.

The rebranded entity, Targa Viasat UK, merges Targa Telematics UK and Viasat Connect Ltd, focusing primarily on the UK market. Simon Keam-George will serve as Country Manager.

The merger aims to harness the commercial, technological, and operational synergies of both companies to bolster Targa Telematics’ presence in the UK. The company will target sectors including fleet management, construction, OEM, SVR, rental, and rent-a-car, as well as industrial, logistics, and airport sectors.

Customers of Targa Viasat UK will benefit from a broad range of innovative solutions, developed under Targa Telematics’ R&D strategy. Additionally, the company’s global network will support customers in expanding their businesses into major European and global markets.

“The integration is a pivotal moment for us, one that fills us with immense excitement as we look to the future,” said Simon Keam-George, Country Manager of Targa Viasat UK. “This union allows us to amplify our leadership in the UK market and broaden our offerings with an extensive range of cutting-edge technologies in global projects. Our customers stand to gain significantly from this merger as we leverage our combined strengths to become a dominant force in connected mobility solutions. We are committed to addressing the evolving challenges our customers face by consistently delivering higher quality, exceptional service, increased competitiveness, and relentless innovation.”

This move is part of Targa Telematics’ broader international growth strategy, strengthening its position as a European leader in IoT solutions for connected mobility. Post-integration, Targa Telematics will employ over 670 people and manage more than 3.5 million connected assets across 50 countries.
