A brief history about NetSuite

It’s all started in 1998 when Evan Goldberg founded NetSuite in San Mateo, California (USA). Then, it was named, “NetLedger” which offered accounting software hosted on the web. In 1998, Evan Goldberg received initial financial support of approximately $125 million from Larry Ellison, founder and CEO of Oracle Corporation through, Tako Ventures, Ellison’s venture capital firm. The other early investors were StarVest Partners, ADP, and UBS PaineWebber.

In July 2002, Zach Nelson was appointed as CEO of NetLedger. Before joining Netledger, Nelson had prior experience on enterprise applications via the Internet in MyCIO.com, a division of McAfee Corp. This experience led him to the conviction that all software can be delivered over the Internet, and he left McAfee to join NetLedger. In 2002, NetLedger changed its name to NetSuite after the company added applications for inventory management and CRM. This led the company to climb annual revenue of nearly $1 billion from about $1 million before its acquisition by Oracle Corp.

In December 2007, NetSuite became a publicly-traded company after its initial public offering (IPO) of 6.2 million shares at $26, raising more than $160 million and giving the organization a market cap of $1.55 billion on the New York Stock Exchange.

As a result of this growth, in July 2016, Oracle announced its offer to acquire NetSuite for $9.3 billion to support its transition to become a cloud software provider. Before closing the deal, the process went through some complications, and then finally, in November of the same year, NetSuite began operating as a Global Business Unit within Oracle.

After the acquisition, NetSuite has continued to grow swiftly – a quarter of the employees are based in their Philippine office. Also, NetSuite has additional offices in Denver, Las Vegas, Austin, Chicago, Atlanta, New York, Boston, Toronto, UK, Spain, Czech Republic, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, and Uruguay.
