PAUL NEWMAN

Co- founder, Oxbotica

AUTONOMOUS vehicles and the tech that drives them have made more headlines in the past year than the previous decade combined. That’s why Paul Newman keeps his place on our Brit List; the company he co-founded, Oxbotica, is at the forefront of the UK’S efforts to develop software for self-driving vehicles. It has received Government backing for trials that could take autonomous cars between London and Oxford, and been linked to selfdriving projects at Gatwick Airport. Next step? A major OEM deal would really take the firm to the next level.
