Data analysis: analysis of mobility data to identify trends and support new data-driven parking solutions in both markets

On the Amakin deal, CEO Eng. Mohamed Abdulla Al Ali said: "At Parkin, we are constantly exploring opportunities to apply our technology and operational expertise to enhance the parking experience."

"Our partnership with Amakin represents a significant milestone in expanding our smart parking capabilities beyond Dubai, bringing together our complementary technologies and digital platforms to deliver a seamless customer experience and unlock future growth opportunities across the GCC and beyond," he stated.

Bahrain Car Parks Company CEO Tariq Ali Aljowder said its priority is to make parking simpler and more convenient for our customers.

"Working with Parkin gives us the opportunity to explore practical solutions that combine digital innovation with our understanding of the Bahraini market to improve customer experience, including faster payment options and more accurate space availability for the communities we already serve," stated Aljowder.

Beyond technology integration, the MoU also provides a framework for Parkin and Amakin to explore joint business opportunities across the GCC and selected international markets, he added.
