We’ve all felt the frustration of driving round and round an area or a parking lot, desperately searching for that coveted empty space with bright yellow lines for ages. Well, what if you knew you had your very own parking spot reserved and ready to go?

CEO of peer to peer parking platform, ParkIt, Liew Kei Yan, discusses how he came up with this idea, misconceptions about running a tech business, and how he raised millions through equity crowdfunding and venture capitalists.
