Main takeaways

The highlights from our conversation with Daithí de Buitléir are summarised below:

• ParkOffice is powering employee parking for smart offices: “We started based on a very simple insight: parking management is just very difficult for employers. We wanted to develop a solution that could really solve that problem”
• One of the key features is like hot desking for parking spaces, where parking spaces are shared flexibly between all users: “We also have other features which allow companies to cut down their carbon footprint or reduce the amount of people who drive to work. Interestingly, during Covid-19 the opposite happened, as people tried to reduce usage of public transport.”
• ParkOffice allows to pool parking lots from different owners within the same building or neighbourhood: “We optimise infrastructure and cost management”
• “We are in a Covid-19 environment and people have massively changed the way they work and as a knock on effect the way they travel to work“
• ParkOffice is in line with coworking and other sharing economy related innovative new services.
