History
In 1996, John Muldoon and Mark Adams founded Intralinks. Major banks began using its product for loan syndication in 1997. In 2002, the firm created the world's first virtual data room (VDR), which enabled transacting parties to share information during the due diligence process in a secure environment.

In 2004, its customers completed over $5 trillion in syndicated loan transactions using Intralink products. The company was acquired by TA Associates in 2007, before becoming a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange in 2010.

The company's initial public offering took place on August 6, 2010. Its initial price range was $14–$16, and the stock priced at $13. The company sold 11,000,000 shares and raised $143M. The lead underwriters were Deutsche Bank AG and Credit Suisse Group. The company had approximately $152M in debt at the time of the IPO and expected to use the vast majority of the returns from the offering to repay its obligations.

In 2011, Ron Hovsepian, previously CEO of Novell, Inc. joined Intralinks as CEO, President and Director. Under his leadership, the company developed Intralinks VIA and Intralinks DealNexus.

In 2013 the company launched morethanavdr.com, a website that specifically targets investment bank strategic advisors, legal advisors and corporate advisors.

It also has Intralinks Dealspace.
