Our take
As cities grow larger and more congested, there is a serious lack of parking locations. ParkBee aims to address this problem by developing smart car parking technology that optimises the use of current resources to provide travellers with access to the best place to park.
The startup leverages its network of locations, smart integrations and predictive systems in order to utilise underused parking locations and to direct traffic to the right place at the right time. It is used by the UK’s most well-known public car park operators, hotels and private commercial office spaces. It also allows landlords and other private car park owners to monetise their spaces by making them available to the public.
ParkBee's business model involves splitting the revenue generated through renting each parking space with the owner, and the fee it charges consumers with partners RingGo or Parkmobile. It already operates hundreds of connected parking locations across a number of countries, and has expanded healthily over the years.
