Vice Media Finalizes Deal to Acquire Refinery29

Reshuffles executive team

Refinery29 is now officially part of Vice Media.

It is the first major media merger announced in recent weeks to be successfully completed after Vox Media and New York Media as well as Group Nine and PopSugar also said they intended to merge.

In a memo to staff, Vice Media CEO Nancy Dubuc complimented the award-winning journalists, “numbers junkies” and “quiet wordsmiths” who are now part of the newly merged company.

“And that’s what makes this transformation so exhilarating: you,” Dubuc said in the memo.
