YourParkingSpace

We changed how the UK parks. Now we’re redefining what comes next. The YourParkingSpace team came together at Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa for our 2026 strategy offsite, setting bold ambitions to drive the next wave of innovation across parking, mobility, and connected experiences. Between strategy sessions, we swapped the whiteboard for axe throwing, clay shooting, and archery. Teamwork and precision in every form. As a tech disruptor, we keep growing and investing in exceptional talent to shape the future of parking and mobility. We’re hiring! Link in comments.

Retailers aren’t just curating stores anymore, they’re curating entire customer journeys. YourParkingSpace had the pleasure of attending MAPIC 2025, connecting with forward-thinking global retailers who are reimagining every step of the journey, from parking bay to purchase. • Before the visit: Data-led engagement is shaping how customers discover, plan, and arrive. • During the visit: Digital tools are blending physical and online experiences for seamless convenience. • After the visit: Insight and personalisation are driving loyalty, even as the customer leaves. And at the centre of it all? Parking. It’s not just infrastructure. It’s experience infrastructure. The first impression on arrival and the final moment that closes the loop. At YourParkingSpace, we’re inspired to see retail leaders recognise that frictionless, data-driven parking isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s a growth lever.

“You have to be receptive to change, not resistant!” This week, the team at Arrive came together for an inspiring in-person session on Women in Tech and Mobility: Empowering Female Leadership in Technology, hosted by YourParkingSpace at our Arrive Stratford, London office. The session brought together forward-thinking women across the industry to champion diversity and inclusion in tech. Our very own Tara Tapper (Chief People & Culture Officer) and Debbie Guerra (General Manager, Payments) led the conversation, sharing honest reflections from their own journeys and practical advice on how to help more women thrive in technology and leadership. At YourParkingSpace and Arrive, we are proud to celebrate and learn from the women shaping our future, paving the way for the next generation of innovators in the industry!
