After what has already been an exciting year for the IPS Group UK, Sarah Gardner, Marketing and Communications Manager, has been named Parking Sector Marketing Leader of the Year 2025 at the prestigious Acquisition International Influential Businesswoman Awards!

While this award is a huge personal achievement for Sarah, it also reflects how far we’ve come as a business. Over the past few years, we’ve put a lot of focus into clarifying our messaging, remaining more relevant, and more impactful – and Sarah has been right at the centre of that shift.

Her work has helped us communicate not just what we offer, but why it matters to the organisations we work with. This recognition helps put IPS Group UK on the map in a new way, showing that we’re not just delivering great tech – we’re also leading the conversation around smarter, more connected ways to manage parking and mobility; a sign we’re moving in the right direction, with the right team behind us.

Smart cities aren’t just about tech – they’re about the people who keep them ticking. Sarah’s work demonstrates this. Her award also brings industry-wide visibility to the vital role that marketing plays in infrastructure transformation – a space often overlooked but increasingly critical in today’s digital-first public services.

We couldn’t be prouder of Sarah’s well-deserved win. It motivates us to keep pushing boundaries – not just in product innovation, but in how we speak to our market, support our clients, and build long-term trust in the IPS brand.
