The autonomous vehicle (AV) space is entering its inflection point. 2025 marks a breakthrough year, not just in hype. The global AV market is projected to scale from tens of billions today toward hundreds of billions over the next decade, with some forecasts estimating a compound annual growth rate in the 25–35% range. Meanwhile, major incumbents are aggressively pushing commercialization. Waymo is expanding robotaxi service via Uber integration into new U.S. metros, Tesla launched a limited robotaxi operation in Austin in mid-2025, and Uber has committed to deploying 20,000+ autonomous vehicles through a major investment in Lucid and Nuro. At the same time, regulatory, infrastructure, and consumer trust barriers are falling. This is permitting programs, smart-city policies, and incremental performance gains across AI and sensor stacks are converging.

Simply put: the runway is clear, the demand is forming, and the technology is ready. OTTOYARD is positioned to capture pivotal value now — not later — by building platforms, partners, and positioning in the moment when autonomy shifts from aspirational to ubiquitous.

Key Drivers Accelerating Our Opportunity:

• Explosive Market Growth — The AV market is forecast to surge ~25–35% annually over the next decade as deployment scales.

• Commercial Launches & Deployments — Robotaxi services are live or imminent in multiple U.S. cities; global players are expanding across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

• Strategic Capital Inflows — Multihundred-million-dollar commitments from major AV platforms validate that autonomy is now a real operational bet.

• Tech & Infrastructure Momentum — Sensor fusion, simulation, AV development platforms, and edge compute infrastructures are maturing rapidly.

• Regulation & Trust Catching Up — Governments around the world are loosening restrictions, issuing AV test and commercial permits; public trust is climbing as real-world safety data accumulates.
