Arlington, Virginia, United States
InGo, founded in 2013 and headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, is a community growth platform that uses social graph analysis to help event organizers and media brands acquire and retain audiences. The company operates on a dollar-per-member-per-year pricing model and serves roughly 80 customers, including media properties such as Fast Company and Inc. After generating zero revenue in early 2020 when COVID-19 eliminated its core event-registration business, InGo pivoted to a year-round digital community product serving media companies and corporate brands. By mid-2021 the company was running between $100,000 and $150,000 per month in revenue and targeting a $2 million annual run rate by year-end, representing a full recovery from a standing start. InGo raised $2 million in 2015, its only outside funding round, and has since operated profitably. CEO Michael Barnett, age 37 at the time of the interview, leads a fully remote team of 11 and is weighing options that include a potential acquisition by event-technology platforms or a $5 million fundraise to accelerate customer growth.
