About Webango

Webango Inc. emerged in 1998, positioning itself as a provider of strategic e-sourcing solutions tailored for Global 2000 companies and their supplier networks. The company's core business was centered on a B2B platform designed to help large enterprises manage their relationships with service suppliers over the internet.

The firm operated in the enterprise software market, specifically targeting the burgeoning field of online procurement and supplier relationship management. Its business model was predicated on providing a platform for these large-scale corporations to streamline sourcing and vendor management, a critical function for complex multinational organizations. The target clients were large, established corporations within the Global 2000 list.

A significant milestone in the company's history occurred in June 2000, when it secured $20 million in a Series A financing round. This substantial injection of capital was led by Battery Ventures and included participation from Concord Ventures. The stated purpose of the funding was to facilitate the expansion of the company's network. At that time, the enterprise was valued at an estimated $80 million to $120 million. Despite this early funding success and a clear market position during the dot-com era, there is no publicly available information about its operations in the years following this investment, suggesting it has since ceased operations.
