Profile
Forbes Russia operates as the Russian-language edition of the international Forbes magazine, delivering business news, analysis and feature stories. Its core product is a monthly print magazine complemented by a continuously updated website that covers entrepreneurship, investment, leadership and industry trends. The publication targets Russian‑speaking executives, investors and entrepreneurs who seek insights into domestic and global markets. Content is produced by a team of journalists and editors based in Moscow, who adapt global Forbes coverage to the Russian economic context. In addition to the magazine, Forbes Russia organizes conferences and award programmes that recognize prominent Russian business leaders.
The outlet is also identified in open‑source references as a pro‑Kremlin Russian media site, reflecting its alignment with governmental narratives. Its headquarters are located in Russia, although the exact city is not specified in the provided sources. On 24 February 2022, the Forbes Russia website was disrupted by a cyberattack attributed to the hacker collective Anonymous. The attack defaced the site with an anti‑war message urging Russians to oppose the invasion of Ukraine, part of a wider hacktivist campaign against Russian state media. This incident highlighted the organization’s visibility as a target during the early phase of the Russia‑Ukraine conflict. No further details about its ownership structure or subscriber numbers are available in the supplied information.
