After experiencing the frustration of poor parking experiences, Dan Hubert launched AppyWay in 2013. His vision was to build a platform that would standardise, and centralise a digital version of the kerb. AppyWay’s platform aims to enable cities and fleets to optimise their operations and transition to net zero by offering UK-wide kerbside maps, occupancy data, and payment solutions. AppyWay now claims to be the most advanced kerbside platform, and works with global brands to help cities to decarbonise.

How we grew by 400% and hit 7th in the Fast Track 100
400 and 25,000. In the Ooni story, these two numbers stand out like haggis on a Hawaiian pizza. The first is the company’s percentage growth over the past 12 months.
