What’s your vision for the future of Parking Panda?įor us, it’s really about scale. When you buy a ticket, you reserve a parking spot and have guaranteed peace of mind. We’re flipping that on its head and want to make it part of the planning process. Parking is something you do at the last minute and hope you can find a space until now, it’s been a very inefficient process. You plan everything else in advance - things like dinner reservations or concert tickets - except parking. How are you changing the way people think and feel about parking?īefore Parking Panda came about, the parking industry hadn’t changed in years. Parking is traditionally such an awful experience that there are full TV episodes (Seinfeld, New Girl) dedicated to it.

With such a high demand for parking and available spots going unused, I knew there had to be a way to connect the two. Then, going to school at Georgetown in Washington D.C., I had been issued a parking space that I never used - it was wasted.
