“Modaxo is an ideal cultural and technological fit for TTG, as both groups are passionate about the important role technology plays in helping to keep Rail operations moving safely and efficiently,” said Dale Coleman, TTG’s founder and owner. “Joining a large, stable, and successful global organisation like Modaxo is a great move for TTG. Modaxo provides us with new opportunities and the ability to further develop our people and our Rail technology products.”
