Connected Car
Aurrigo is celebrating its 30th year in business in style, after securing its latest Government-backed project and announcing plans to create several autonomous technology jobs in the UK. Aurrigo International, which designs, engineers, manufactures and supplies OEM products and autonomous vehicles, has been awarded a £0.7m grant through Innovate UK and the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) Commercialising Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) competition. Originally called RDM Group, the company was set-up by David and Graham Keene after the former took voluntary redundancy from Rover Cars in 1993. “A lot has happened over the last three decades and we are very proud that we still call Coventry ‘home’, and we still employ some of the outstanding staff that helped us in the early days,” explained David Keene, CEO of Aurrigo International. It’s great that we still have people working here that have been with us from the early days.”
