Who We Are

Our Story

Vengo Labs was founded by Brian Shimmerlik, CEO, to connect consumers and brands as they go throughout their day.   Shimmerlik was in grad school at NYU, with no time to venture to a store, when he realized he wanted access to products when and where he needed them.  He made that a reality by teaming up with Steven Bofill, Chief of Design, an aerospace engineer, to create a compact interactive digital vending machine.  With its Core Network of almost 1400 Vengo machines in gyms, colleges, hotels and offices, Vengo is a leader in marketing and retail technology, at the intersection of unattended retail, digital out-of-home (DOOH) media, and attributable product sampling.  Vengo continues to expand both its Core Network and In-Retail solutions and offer new solutions for brands, locations, and stores engaging with consumers.
