Salesforce co-founder Marc Benioff and his philanthropist wife Lynne Benioff have bought Time Magazine soon after Meredith Corp. announced they were selling the publication, completing the sale at a staggering $190 million in cash.
While the Benioffs are purchasing Time personally and the transaction is unrelated to Salesforce.com, Meredith revealed that they would not be involved in the day-to-day operations or journalistic decisions at the publication.
Time’s current executive leadership team will continue to make these decisions and the announcement stated that: ‘We’re pleased to have found such passionate buyers in Marc and Lynne Benioff for the Time brand.
Meredith president and CEO Tom Harty said: ‘For over 90 years, Time has been at the forefront of the most significant events and impactful stories that shape our global conversation.’ But what is Marc Benioff’s net worth?
