While drivers everywhere look for a place to park, Dallas-based ParkHub aims to help them out by pulling into a new brand identity of its own. It's now known as JustPark, sharing the same name as the U.K. company it merged with across the pond.

You have to put the work in, stay united in adversity, lick the occasional wounds of failure, and keep taking risks to find those successes that lie at the intersection of technologies and trends in the marketplace."
