Founder story
InLoox was founded in 2001 in Munich, Germany, by Dr. Andreas Tremel and Dr. Tiziano Panico. Recognizing that corporate employees spent most of their workday inside Microsoft Outlook, they created software that brought formal project management directly into the inbox. The founders bootstrapped the company to long-term profitability, expanding internationally with an additional US headquarters in San Francisco.
