Bill Lerner Speaks At The IPI Conference & Expo

Jun 10, 2026

Both Bill Lerner’s family parking business and the IPI share a similar history, with origins in the early 1960s as a response to the mounting needs of a growing population of private vehicle owners.

-- The International Parking Institute’s (IPI) Conference & Expo is an industry-leading platform providing intensive training sessions, networking opportunities, and access to an immense variety of cutting-edge technology and solutions for international parking companies. iPark is NYC’s largest, privately-owned vehicle management and parking company. Its CEO is Bill Lerner. He praised the event held in New Orleans, LA, in a facility that covered 170,000 square feet. It had more than 3500 attendees and 250 exhibitors, with backgrounds ranging from enforcement, planning & design to operational management. It was the world’s largest of its kind, and its main attractions included the information-rich keynote lectures along with innovative offerings.

Both Bill Lerner’s family parking business and the IPI share a similar history, with origins in the early 1960s as a response to the mounting needs of a growing population of private vehicle owners. Those demands have since grown into a broad range of specific service requirements for discerning clients, in search of standard and convenient fuel-powered car stall facilities or perhaps for electric charging stations for their state-of-the-art automobiles. Beyond the immediate needs of clients, IPI members and other parking professionals must also address issues related to the changing nature of municipal and national regulations and restrictions. The 2017 Conference & Expo provides participants with an avenue of thought and technology-sharing opportunities, which Lerner sees as hugely important for his colleagues and the industry as a whole.

As the parking service field becomes increasingly competitive and vulnerable to shifting economies and disruptive advancements in transport, self-driving cars need to survive. A trusted provider of payment processing solutions in the U.S.—iPayment intends to exhibit for the first time this year at the IPI Conference & Expo, offering interested parties the potential to implement a bespoke toolset solution that boasts Department of Defense-grade security features, contactless transactions, and an overall fluid, self-service option for customers. While Bill Lerner’s iPark already offers clients high-level, sustainable service through options such as an online booking system and EV charging stations, he does not doubt the value it offers to entrepreneurs and staff alike who attend events such as the International Parking Institute’s annual event.

Bill Lerner has steered his father’s legacy of a handful of car parking facilities (beginning with a single, 25-car lot in 1960) into a vast enterprise of over 150 locations today, more than 60 years later. Beyond his ambitions as an entrepreneur and CEO, he is an active and award-winning philanthropist—the director of Billy4Kids, a non-profit organization founded with a mandate to provide support for underprivileged youth around the world and to raise awareness for their plight. With regular contributions to publications such as 33 Voices, The Atlantic, Raise, and Leaders Magazine, Lerner offers interested parties an insightful perspective on the parking industry.
