Gina’s Journey: From Ning to Mighty Networks

Gina previously launched a platform called Ning in 2007, which gave people a way to create their own social networks.

The Ning Experience

These were social networks that creators built and owned. They brought members together around interests, passions, and goals, with unique characteristics:
  • Their own branding
  • Their choice of features
  • Their own members
The creativity and connections from Ning attracted nearly 100 million people worldwide and profoundly impacted Gina.

The Vision Behind Mighty Networks

The potential for a new internet culture and a different technological relationship inspired Gina to create Mighty Networks with Tim and Tom. They envisioned a world with a million unique, vibrant communities, all mastering something interesting or important together.

This Vision Includes:

  • Own Your Space: Host a community, courses, and memberships in your own space under your own brand—away from social media algorithms and distractions
  • Create Your Culture: Design your own culture to help members achieve transformations
  • Enable Connections: Members can meet and connect in new ways, finding people with common interests and going on collaborative “quests”
The founding team’s experience and vision combine to create a platform where creators can build thriving, branded communities that deliver real value and meaningful connections.
