Establishment update request

Hello @ Carrite:, I was wondering if you would be kind enough to review an update request for the Establishment section of the article. I have a suggestion to revise the section by replacing the second paragraph with the suggestion below. I believe this will make this section stronger by adding more factual information and relevant sources to the article. What do you think of the suggested text?

Since it’s original establishment, Minute Media has grown to own and operate multiple sports and culture content brands, in addition to its flagship brand 90min, including Mental Floss, The Players’ Tribune [1] and FanSided [2]. The company has also launched its own technology brand, Voltax in 2020. [3]

As mentioned before, I have a conflict of interest on this page so I will not make any edits myself. Please let me know what you think of this suggestion and thank you in advance for your help! M at MinuteMedia ( talk) 21:24, 18 August 2023 (UTC) reply

 Partly done: I've added the fact about launching Voltax to the "Acquisitions"-section. I don't think that the text you suggested should be added to "establishments", as it's all mentioned in aquisitions. NotAGenious ( talk) 13:46, 20 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Hi @ NotAGenious:! Thank you for taking the time to review my edit and adding in the Voltax information! I agree with your comment on not adding in the acquisition information to the "Establishments" page as I don't want to make the article repetitive. That being said, I do think the launch of Voltax should be in the "Establishments" section since it is not an acquisition, but a technology offering the company created and launched itself. What do you think? M at MinuteMedia ( talk) 17:00, 28 August 2023 (UTC) reply

You're right!  Done and thank you. NotAGenious ( talk) 14:24, 29 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Hi @ NotAGenious:! I have another update request for the Establishment section of the article that I would love your perspective on. I suggest rewriting the section after the first paragraph to make the section more concise, more up to date, and incorporate more sources which strengthens the overall article. What do you think of the suggested text?

Since it’s original establishment, Minute Media has grown to own multiple sports and culture content brands. The company employs over 400 employees in offices in New York, London, Tel-Aviv, Sao Paulo and Tokyo and reaches 200 million monthly users in 14 markets. [1]

In May 2020, Minute Media launched its own technology brand, Voltax Video. [2] In 2022, the company continued its growth in the technology sector by launching its own in-house supply-side platform to enable other publishers access to Minute Media's ad stack and direct demand. [3]

In general, Minute Media is described as a global sports content and tech company. [4]

Acquisitions update request

Hello! I was wondering if someone would be willing to help me make an update to the "Acquisitions" section of this article. I noticed that two recent acquisitions are not included. Minute Media acquired Wazimo in 2021 (source: "Minute Media acquires Israeli tech company Wazimo". Axios. November 10, 2021.) and STN Video in 2024 (source: "PLAYERS' TRIBUNE PARENT MINUTE MEDIA ACQUIRES VIDEO PLATFORM STN". Sportico. January 24, 2024.

I've written some suggested text below, but since I have a conflict of interest I will not make edits the article myself.

In 2021 Minute Media made its first technology acquisition with Wazimo, a Tel Aviv-based company with expertise in combining engaging content with advanced technology to drive audience growth and monetization. [1] In 2024, Minute Media acquired STN Video. According to the company's Chief Media Officer, Andres Cardenas, "This acquisition will enable us to join our scale and become a leader in terms of sports video". [2]

Hi editors! I just wanted to follow up on my previous request to see if anyone had any thoughts or would be able to help me implement some of these changes. As always, thank you for your help! M at MinuteMedia ( talk) 16:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi @ Carrite: I wanted to see if you had any thoughts on my proposed edit to the "Acquisitions" section. Please let me know. Thank you! M at MinuteMedia ( talk)

Hi Editors! I am wondering if I could get your opinions on adding in more information into the "Acquisitions" section of this article. I have written a suggestion below, but since I have a conflict of interest I will not make edits the article myself.

In March 2024, Minute Media acquired the digital and print publishing rights of Sports Illustrated from Authentic Brands Group. [1] This deal brings the operations of Sports Illustrated, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, and Sports Illustrated Kids under Minute Media’s portfolio of sports brands for at least the next 10 years. Authentic Brands Group, which ended their partnership with previous Sports Illustrated publisher, Arena Group, earlier in the year, stated, “In Minute Media we have found a partner that will honor SI’s lauded legacy and exceed fan expectations for the future.” [2] This is Minute Media’s first venture into print media. According to Minute Media CEO, Asaf Peled, the focus of the deal will be “to take [Sports Illustrated’s] legacy into new, emerging channels enhancing visibility, commercial viability and sustainable impact, all while ensuring that the SI team is inspired to flourish in this new era of media.” [3] Plans include leveraging their technology platform which enables creation, distribution, and monetization of digital publishers, to grow brand operations [4] and expanding Sports Illustrated into global markets. [5]
