From my understanding, if a company has an IPO of 1000 shares at 1$ per share, and I buy one share, I have gave that 1$, then the company has 1$ to use on research, build factories, etc.
But if the stock price keeps getting driven up so that eventually the shares are worth 10$/share, and I buy 1 share, the company doesn't get an extra 10$ because it already had the initial IPO, right?
How exactly does buying shares in a company help the company?

In an IPO, the shares are sold by the company in bulk to institutional investors. That money goes to the company.
Then the shares are traded to whoever wants to buy shares (you) for whatever they can get and any money from these sales does not go to the company.

These answers are all "sort-of" right, but they neglect to take into account that when a company "go public" they typically don't sell the ENTIRE corporation, so the Board and the Senior Officers retain ownership of a percentage (usually quite large) of the business... Bill Gates, for example, still owns 166,992,934 shares of Microsoft stock...

Correct. The company only gets the money on the IPO or if they issue additional stock.

right, the person you buy the stock from gets it.

It depends on whom you buy the shares from. If you buy from the company at the inflated price, the company gets all the money. If you buy from some private party who owns the stock already, the company gets nothing.
