ActiveOverview

Its platform helps organizers use attendees, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, and other participants as distribution channels for event promotion, while also supporting attendee discovery and engagement.

Its notable features include socially informed contact discovery, automated referral sharing, personalized emails, leaderboards, incentives, and integrations with event-registration and content systems.
History
InGo was founded in 2013, although the supplied company description identifies 2014 as the founding year. It developed a socially driven advocate-marketing platform designed to help event organizers increase attendance through referrals from attendees, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, and other participants. By 2016, InGo reported operations or offices in the United States, United Kingdom, and Italy, partnerships across six continents, and service to more than 350 events. Its trajectory has centered on expanding from social-media advocacy into event referral marketing software integrated with registration and content systems.
