What Safety21 does

Safety21 S.p.A. is an Italian technology company founded in 2010 and headquartered in Rome (Via Chopin 12) that delivers technology-enabled road safety enforcement and smart mobility solutions to public administrations and law enforcement agencies. The company operates primarily through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model in which it provides IoT detection devices, software, and management services to municipalities, provinces, and regions at zero upfront cost, recovering investment through revenue sharing on enforcement fines and collection services. Its customer base spans 500+ municipalities, 2 regions, and 10 provinces in Italy, with international expansion into Spain and Portugal via the Safety21 Iberica subsidiary, an exclusive distribution partnership with ITE, and a minority stake in CASV (rebranded CGI21).

The company's core technology is the proprietary TitanO cloud platform, which manages the entire sanctioning lifecycle from violation detection through evidence management to fine collection. The product portfolio integrates IoT detection devices (Velocar line including VRS-EVO and EVO2 radars), the G.U.A.R.D.I.U.M. AI-driven enforcement solution for local police, and the iCAM3D 3D accident reconstruction system available in portable and vehicular versions. Supporting capabilities include computer vision for automated violation detection, predictive analytics for risk-area identification, and edge AI processing that operates without network connectivity. The company has pursued a buy-and-integrate expansion strategy, acquiring Velocar S.r.l. (May 2025), Cross Control S.r.l. (May 2025), and the tax/fine collection subsidiary Gefil S.p.A. (2019), while operating additional subsidiaries ServiceNet21 and SPV21 Ventimiglia.

Safety21 is majority-owned by Bregal Unternehmerkapital (BU) Funds, with institutional investors holding 71.21%, other investors 22.21%, and management retaining approximately 6.58%. Revenue is generated through multiple streams: transaction-based PPP enforcement revenue sharing, TitanO SaaS subscriptions, managed fine-collection services via Gefil (handling 5M+ fines annually), IoT hardware sales, and professional services. The company holds 13+ certifications including ISO 9001/14001/27001/27701, ACN cybersecurity qualification for TitanO, B Corp certification (2025), SBTi approval, and CEM Spanish homologation, positioning it as a credentialed vendor for European public-sector procurement. The management team is led by founder and Group CEO Gianluca Longo, with Roberto Campisi as Chairman, Gianni Panconi as CFO, and a full executive bench across revenue, operations, HR, and the Iberian subsidiary.
