PARKEX2013 PREVIEW
Putting in
A GOOD performance
It is the biggest event in the UK parking profession’s calendar. Here is Parking News’ exclusive insight into the exhibitors, the events and the special guests
I
t’s all about performance at this year’s Parkex event, which returns to the NEC for a three-day extravaganza. The spirit of the Olympics continues to
linger, as the parking profession takes on board some of the lessons learnt following the biggest peace-time logistical operation in the UK. Innovation in both management and organisation of transport and parking meant that traffi c smoothly fl owed throughout the Games and Paralympics – despite the naysayers’ doom-ridden predictions – and Sarju Radia, who was head of transport for the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG), will explain how it all went so swingingly.

The theme of performances continues with the introduction of power pitches. This is the chance for a selection of Parkex exhibitors to woo their audiences with their slick and concise presentations. Participants will be up against the clock to deliver their messages and the sessions, which take place every day, and should prove to be both informative and entertaining. There will be a slight Orwellian air of
1984 as Norman Baker, parliamentary under secretary of state for transport, will be making televised addresses to the delegates on both Tuesday and Wednesday morning. Via a videolink, the long-standing minister will be giving his thoughts on the profession and outlining current government policy. This will be Baker’s third consecutive appearance at Parkex. Has Parking Gone Mad? This is the question that has been adopted from the television documentary of the same name
