In its Winter 2012 issue, DePaul University’s quarterly magazine profiles I-GO CEO Sharon Feigon. The issue includes a feature section dedicated to environmental coverage, so it’s appropriate that our local, nonprofit, progressively green org is in there, especially since I-GO maintains car locations on DePaul’s Lincoln Park campus and near its Loop campus as well. It’s also fitting because Feigon earned her MBA from DePaul.

From Vietnam War student protester to environmental, housing and transportation activist, I-GO Car Sharing CEO Sharon Feigon has consistently remained ahead of the curve in her efforts to affect positive, progressive change in the world.
Chicago Tribune business reporter Julie Wernau profiles Feigon in today’s issue. The article provides great insight into how Feigon helped grow I-GO from a small start-up pilot program with just 10 cars and 250 members in 2004 into a leading regional exemplar for nonprofit car sharing worldwide. Readers will learn how Feigon has successfully positioned I-GO as a community-based and environmentally focused alternative to Zipcar’s for-profit, monopolistic mission, where she sees I-GO fitting into the emerging clean-energy culture, and the deeply rooted beliefs which have informed those views.
