Nina Gould was promoted to Chief Innovation Officer, overseeing Forbes' technology and product businesses. Gould, a long-time Forbes veteran, will oversee Forbes' technology, product and product design, data and business intelligence, audience growth and development, accolades and eCommerce businesses and brand solutions. In her new role, Gould will build our Forbes' strategic approach and alignment in AI and other key areas, develop personalized and engaging audience experiences across our platforms, tackle the challenges of SEO, and drive innovation into this next era of media.

Under Vinansky's leadership, this group will focus on identifying, building, and scaling the next generation of revenue for Forbes. As the head of this group, Vinansky will give special focus to growth areas such as AI, social, creators and this will include on and off-platform revenues and scaling our automated revenue businesses. He will also oversee a new internal task force focused on building the brand on each platform, creating sustained audience growth and identifying opportunities to monetize on each effectively. Prior to this, Vinansky served as SVP of Global Sales at Forbes, overseeing Forbes' Global Sales Operations. Phillips also promoted Leann Bonanno to Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. In her new role, Bonanno will lead Forbes' unified revenue and marketing strategy across Forbes' most valuable audiences and customers.

As a trusted and proven business leader, she will focus on deepening relationships with key audiences and partners, expanding revenue opportunities, and delivering fully integrated campaigns across all Forbes platforms. By bringing Sales, Marketing, and Events under one strategic leader, Forbes is positioned to accelerate growth, sharpen its value proposition, and define Forbes' next chapter of success. Bonanno previously held the position of SVP of ForbesLive and Marketing, overseeing Forbes' Live Events business. Additionally, Marissa Alterman was promoted to SVP of Global Sales. 'I've known Nina, Kyle, Leann and Marissa for decades and all four of them are bold, forward-thinking, resilient leaders,' said Sherry Phillips, CEO of Forbes. 'I am confident in their ability to help lead core parts of our company that drive innovation, growth, partnerships and audience experiences as we continue to embrace transformation and adjust accordingly to the changes happening across our industry.' For decades Forbes has been at the forefront of innovation and the leader in convening the most influential communities - like Top Creators, 30 Under 30, Most Influential CMOs, ForbesBLK, Billionaires and the Most Powerful Women. The starting point and what powers all of these communities is Forbes' trusted journalism. Forbes has been strategic about diversifying its revenue streams – in fact more than half of Forbes' revenue can be attributed to non-traditional revenue streams, whereas five years ago traditional media represented over 70 percent. Those non-traditional revenue streams which continue to grow include the Forbes Live events business - which hosted 115 events across six countries in 2024, Forbes Vetted (ecommerce), Accolades, and Licensing. As we evolve and build for growth, AI is a critical component. Forbes is forming partnerships with brands to be part of bigger narratives around the impact and future of AI and technology. These brands recognize that Forbes has the access and authority to create and deliver important narratives to influential audiences.
