Condé Nast

Condé Montrose Nast launched the company in 1909 to publish Vanity Fair, a magazine that would eventually evolve into a sprawling media empire. Advance Publications acquired the firm early in the 20th century and has maintained ownership ever since. The corporation now operates from One World Trade Center in New York City, managing a vast portfolio of 37 distinct brands across 32 markets and 26 languages.

The organization serves over 400 million digital users monthly while generating 454 million social media interactions. Its editorial reach extends through titles like Vogue, The New Yorker, GQ, and Wired. Anna Wintour currently directs creative strategy as Artistic Director and Global Chief Content Officer for Vogue. In 2011, the company established Condé Nast Entertainment to produce scripted series and documentaries based on its intellectual property.

Recent operational shifts include the launch of The Journey, a podcast collaboration between The New Yorker and In the Dark, and the expansion of Vogue Business China with a new Future Lifestyle Academy. The brand also hosted its first-ever event in Panama for Vogue in August 2026 to strengthen its presence in Latin America. [edit]
