Everbridge, Inc.

Everbridge, Inc. is a US enterprise software company founded in 2002 (originally as 3n Global, renamed Everbridge in 2009). It was publicly traded on Nasdaq under ticker EVBG from its 2016 IPO until Thoma Bravo acquired it for approximately $1.8 billion in an all-cash take-private that closed in July 2024. Everbridge is now a Thoma Bravo portfolio company. Reported figures for the last full public year show roughly $449 million in revenue and about 1,600 employees (2023); Gartner lists current headcount in the 1,001–5,000 band. Corporate headquarters listings have shifted to Vienna, Virginia (8300 Boone Blvd), with a long-standing Burlington, Massachusetts office and operations in multiple countries.

Products and operations. Everbridge sells SaaS for critical event management (CEM): mass notification and population alerting, incident and IT alerting, risk intelligence and travel risk management, physical security information management, business continuity planning, and safety/incident communications. Its customer base spans enterprises, healthcare, transportation, higher education, utilities, and federal, state and local government agencies. This is an operating company with real products and revenue, not a patent-holding shell.

Litigation posture. The tracked data shows one case, with Everbridge as defendant and none as plaintiff — the profile of an operating company being sued rather than an active enforcer. In Lab Technology LLC v. Everbridge, Inc. (No. 1:25-cv-01355, D. Del., filed 2025-11-06) the plaintiff is Lab Technology LLC, which Stanford's NPE litigation database classifies as a non-practicing entity asserting acquired patents. The asserted patents were U.S. 8,503,973 and 9,219,982, directed to automatic telephone display refresh and emergency caller location technology. Public docket reporting indicates the case was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i) before Everbridge answered, with no merits ruling; the record does not confirm whether the dismissal was with or without prejudice beyond the rule's default.

Context. Delaware, rather than plaintiff-friendly districts such as the Eastern or Western District of Texas, is the venue in the tracked suit. Lab Technology has asserted the same family of patents against numerous other communications and technology defendants, and Unified Patents has challenged at least one Lab Technology patent at the USPTO.
