ABOUT US
Parkent was started to help a friend in college who had two bicycles stolen in a week. The bike thief was nice enough to leave a sticky note with "THANKS" written on it!
The first idea was to build a smart bicycle rack. At the Georgia Tech Flashpoint Accelerator program the idea pivoted to secure e-bike charging stations. The right idea at the right time to coincide with the incredible rise of e-bikes and other Micromobility devices.
Further credit to The FARM | Boomtown Comcast NBCUniversal Accelerator program for refining our message and getting the word out to the world.
Parkent is proud to provide the first universal secure e-bike charging station in the world.
