With its wide editorial lens, soaring digital success and iconic status in the lexicon of American media, Forbes is not just a business magazine and website, but a media brand that documents and promotes innovation, leadership, politics, entertainment, technology, culture, business and style.

Forbes’ mission is to deliver information on the people, ideas and technologies changing the world to our community of affluent business decision makers. What distinguishes Forbes from other media brands is our exceptional access to the world’s most powerful people—the game changers and disruptors who are advancing industries across the globe. Through our unique platform of print, digital and mobile products, Forbes is changing the way content is created, distributed, consumed and shared.

Since 1917, Forbes magazine has provided the world’s affluent business leaders with strategic insight and information. In the past two years we have produced an unbroken string of agenda-setting cover stories celebrating the people changing the world for the better: Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey and Sean Parker to Jeff Bezos, Christine Lagarde, Jack Dorsey and more. Forbes magazine is the audience leader in the business category and has seen the only newsstand growth in the category, up 4.3%.*

Forbes.com is the homepage for the world’s business leaders, serving an engaging mix of top stories, video and trending features.
