Perspective
The company was founded by Neil Davidson and Simon Galbraith in October 1999.[10] It is named after Via Porta Rossa (Red Gate Street) in Florence, Italy, close to where Davidson used to live.[11]
On 20 August 2008, Redgate announced it was taking responsibility for future development of the free tool .NET Reflector.[12]
On 22 March 2010, HyperBac Technologies (formerly known as Xceleon Technologies) was acquired by Redgate.[13]
In 2010, Redgate re-launched Springboard with a different model where teams would again receive investment and mentoring, but this time in exchange for an equity stake. One such recipient of investment-for-equity in 2016 was Berlin-based 3T Software Labs,[14] makers of Studio 3T,[15] the IDE for MongoDB, a popular NoSQL database.
On 7 March 2017 Microsoft announced the inclusion of Redgate tools in Visual Studio 2017. Three components were included: ReadyRoll Core and SQL Prompt Core, both in the Enterprise edition of Visual Studio 2017, and SQL Search in all editions.[16]
In December 2021, Redgate announced that Jakub Lamik was taking up the position as CEO of the company, and that Galbraith would remain on the board as a non-executive director.[17]
