Mobility solutions company, Beep Inc. today announced their induction into the ITS World Congress Hall of Fame. The award was received at the annual ITS World Congress event in Los Angeles on Wednesday and recognizes Beep’s continued expansion of its autonomous mobility network in Lake Nona, a 17-square-mile master-planned community and advanced district within the City of Orlando, Florida.

“Congratulations to Beep for its innovative approach to providing electric, autonomous mobility that embodies ITS America’s vision of a safer, greener, smarter future for all,” said Laura Chace, President and CEO of ITS America.

“Beep is honored to be inducted into the ITS World Congress Hall of Fame,” said Joe Moye, Chief Executive Officer for Beep. “We are proud to be recognized by this prestigious institution along with our partners and the developer of Lake Nona, Tavistock Group, whose vision for a modern, connected live-work-play community has been instrumental to our collective success. We’re gratified to be considered an industry leader as we continue to work to extend our vision of mobility for all, with safe and sustainable autonomous transit solutions that reduce carbon emissions and traffic congestion.”

The recognition from ITS World Congress comes as the company celebrates its three-year anniversary in Lake Nona. In those three years, Beep has leveraged its integrated service delivery and technology stack and close partnership with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to transport more than 46,000 passengers in Lake Nona alone.

“Lake Nona’s living lab environment is known for accelerating innovation and there’s no better example than the success of our autonomous shuttle network operated by our partners at Beep,” said Rasesh Thakkar, Senior Managing Director for Tavistock Group. “This recognition highlights the importance of pioneering new ideas to find tangible solutions that benefit people in their everyday lives. We’re proud to be home to the country’s longest-tenured autonomous shuttle deployment and look forward to new achievements that lie ahead as the innovation journey is never over.”

“The innovative work by Beep in Lake Nona embodies the City’s vision to be America’s premier future-ready city and serves as a blueprint for other communities to follow,” said Mayor Buddy Dyer, City of Orlando. “Meeting the needs of our residents today and in the future requires collaboration at the highest level from all partners to ensure we can address community challenges and remain one of the best places to live.”
