The article discusses the cancellation of the merger between Gett and Pango, highlighting a broader issue in the technology sector where companies have historically merged without much interference, leading to reduced competition and consumer harm. Regulators, including the Israeli Competition Authority, are now recognizing these dynamics and are opposing such mergers. This specific merger cancellation reflects a growing awareness and intervention by regulators to prevent monopolistic practices in the digital world.

Facing antitrust resistance, the mobility-tech deal unravels after a year of regulatory hurdles.
Pango has withdrawn its application to merge with Gett after the Israeli Competition Authority raised significant concerns about the potential impact on market competition. The $175 million deal, signed a year ago, faced opposition due to fears that it would harm competitors like Cellopark and Yango. Despite discussions with the Authority to find conditions that might allow the merger, the proposal was ultimately rejected. Pango, which operates in the parking services market, and Gett, a leader in taxi and delivery services, were concerned about the extensive consumer data held by both companies. The decision to withdraw was made after a year of regulatory scrutiny, with little chance of approval.

Pango in talks to buy Gett
Parking payments app Pango is in negotiations to acquire taxi hailing app Gett. The deal is believed to be taking place at a valuation of $150-160 million, which is a significant decline from Getts previous valuations. This includes a 24% decline from the companys valuation in 2023 and a nearly 80% decline from its valuation in a public offering that was cancelled due to the war in Ukraine. Getts largest shareholder, Swedish investment fund VNV Global, attributes a fair value of $160 million to the company.
