Forbes is a prominent American media company best known for its flagship publication, *Forbes* magazine, which focuses on business, investing, entrepreneurship, technology, and leadership. Founded on September 15, 1917, by Bertie Charles ("B.C.") Forbes and Walter Drey in New York, the magazine was originally called "Doers and Doings" and aimed to highlight the human element behind business achievements rather than just financial data[1][3]. B.C. Forbes, a journalist with a keen eye for storytelling, sought to provide well-researched and engaging content that combined critical corporate analysis with profiles of influential business leaders. Over the decades, *Forbes* has grown into one of the most respected and widely read business periodicals in the U.S., known especially for its authoritative lists, such as the Forbes 400—the ranking of the wealthiest Americans—and other influential rankings in global business and technology sectors[1]. The magazine’s focus on investigative reporting and shareholder advocacy established its reputation as a trusted source for investors and professionals. Leadership of Forbes Inc. remained within the Forbes family, with B.C. Forbes’s sons, Bruce and Malcolm, significantly expanding the company's reach and influence during the mid-20th century. Malcolm Forbes, who led the company from the 1960s until his death in 1990, was instrumental in transforming Forbes into a multimedia brand. Today, Steve Forbes, Malcolm’s son, serves as president and editor-in-chief, continuing the family legacy alongside other family members in executive roles[2]. Forbes Inc. remains a privately owned, family-run business headquartered in New York City, with a workforce of around 600 employees and significant digital and print presence. Besides the biweekly *Forbes* magazine, the company publishes related titles like *Forbes FYI* and *Forbes ASAP*, and operates a digital platform that is a leading source for business and technology news worldwide[2].
