Fortune Media (USA) Corporation
Fortune Media (USA) Corporation is a global multi-platform media company headquartered in New York City, U.S.. Its core mission is to provide trusted, award-winning reporting and information to help business leaders, executives, and professionals succeed, driving conversations about business and lighting the path for global leaders. Founded in 1929 by Henry Luce, Fortune has evolved from a traditional print publication into a comprehensive media entity.
The company's key products and services include its flagship monthly magazine, a digital news and video platform (fortune.com), a mobile application, various newsletters, and a robust series of live events and conferences. Fortune is renowned for its influential franchises and rankings, such as the Fortune 500, Fortune Global 500, 100 Best Companies to Work For, Most Powerful Women, and World's Most Admired Companies. These offerings cater to a global audience seeking insights into finance, economy, and corporate trends.
In April 2024, Anastasia Nyrkovskaya was appointed CEO, marking her as the first woman to lead the company, succeeding Alan Murray. Nyrkovskaya, who previously served as Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has been credited with steering Fortune through profitable growth and developing new revenue streams. However, in July 2025, Fortune announced a 10% staff reduction, impacting approximately 36 employees out of 360, citing the impact of AI and declining web traffic as contributing factors. The company plans to focus on delivering premium editorial content, leveraging its iconic lists, and expanding its events business. Fortune operates as a privately held entity, owned by Thai businessman Chatchaval Jiaravanon through Fortune Media Group Holdings Limited.
