About HubSpot
HubSpot was founded at MIT by Brian Halligan and Dharmesh Shah. They recognized a shift in how people shop and buy: consumers were no longer tolerating interruptive marketing. They coined the term 'inbound marketing' to describe a strategy focused on attracting customers through valuable content.
What started as a marketing application has grown into a unified, full-stack CRM platform that connects marketing, sales, customer service, and content management. HubSpot went public in 2014 and continues to expand its platform, recently embedding AI natively across all its tools.
