From Wiesbaden to Berlin: Lessons from Parken and the Rise of Smart Parking Across Germany - Go2Sim

As Germany continues its push toward smarter, more sustainable cities, one sector stands at the centre of this transformation: parking. And nowhere was that more evident than at this year’s Parken Expo in Wiesbaden, where Go2Sim proudly showcased our IoT connectivity solutions for the German market.

Now, with conversations still buzzing and new partnerships forming, we’re sharing our biggest takeaways from the event and what they mean for the future of parking across Germany.

Parken 2025: A Glimpse into Germany’s Parking Future

ParkEN is Germany’s only dedicated trade exhibition for the parking industry, and this year’s event did not disappoint. Held in Wiesbaden, the show brought together innovators, operators, municipalities, and tech providers. All with one mission: to improve how people park.

Our Go2Sim team was there front and centre, showcasing:

What we saw at ParkEN confirmed what we already knew: Germany is serious about smart parking and ready for scalable, flexible IoT solutions.

The German Parking Industry: Where Tech Meets Efficiency

Cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Frankfurt are rapidly adopting smart city frameworks. And parking is at the heart of it. We heard from operators and tech providers who are:

  • Expanding ANPR camera networks
  • Digitising on-street and off-street parking
  • Integrating real-time payment and enforcement systems
  • Exploring predictive analytics for occupancy and demand

But one recurring theme? Connectivity challenges.

Many attendees shared frustrations about dropped signals, SIM estate management issues, and the high cost of static data plans. All problems that Go2Sim is uniquely positioned to solve.
