João Correia is the founder and CEO of inGamba Tours, a pioneering company in the world of luxury cycling travel. A former professional cyclist, João’s career has also included senior roles with major publishing houses in New York and leading tech firms in San Francisco.
He launched inGamba with a single tweet in 2010, shortly after retiring from racing. What began as one trip has grown into a global travel company operating on three continents. João was one of the first to see the opportunity in combining high-level cycling with exceptional hospitality.
Driven by a spirit of innovation, João is passionate about creating travel experiences that are immersive, memorable and meaningful. His goal is not just to deliver unforgettable rides, but also to support the communities visited along the way.
When he’s not leading the team at inGamba, João works with world-class athletes through his agency, Corso Sports Marketing. He’s also a dedicated father of two, and an occasional surfer when time allows.
