In late 2006, while working for an interactive advertising agency, Justin Graves, now Infegy's CEO, had a vision to develop a system which could collect as much social content as possible and analyze it on-demand to garner a wealth of insight in to consumer thought and opinion. Justin left the agency to begin development work on this concept, and shortly after he partnered with Adam Coomes, Infegy's President, for his expertise in Web and business development. Infegy, a combination of the words Information and Strategy, was officially founded and work on the project now known as Social Radar was well under way to becoming the powerful yet elegant solution it is today.
Social Radar has continued to evolve at a rapid pace, chasing the original vision of automated generation of as much insight as possible from its enormous and ever-growing collection of content. This philosophy has allowed Social Radar to revolutionize the way companies listen to their consumers, greatly surpassing beliefs about what can be done, and yet this is only the beginning.
Justin Graves, CEO
Justin has a strong development background originally in the gaming industry, having founded a company in the space which developed a state-of-the-art high-efficency 3D game platform. Soon after, Justin joined an advertising agency to aid development of a system which would monitor what a small group of sites were saying about certain brands online. The highlight of this tool was an intelligent 3D data analysis application which a small team, led by Justin, developed.
While working at the agency, Justin envisioned developing a system which could collect mass amounts of conversation from the Web and analyze it on request for insight, giving a voice to millions of consumers. The agency Justin was with at the time could not budget developing this project themselves, so Justin left the agency to begin development, partnering shortly after with Adam Coomes. That idea has become Social Radar as it is today, and that agency became Infegy's first client.

Adam gained lots of experience working with several companies managing different aspects of business ranging from sales and support to coding and development. Because of this, Adam identifies with the world of development, but can bridge other aspects of business together to produce a great environment and a great team.
