Yahoo

Yahoo is a global internet technology company founded in 1994, originally as a hobby project by two Stanford engineering students. It has since grown from a web directory into a provider of consumer products that people use to manage everyday life, serving nearly 900 million people globally. Its stated mission is to connect people to what they love, and it describes itself as a trusted guide through an always-changing internet.

The company's consumer products span communications, media and finance. Yahoo Mail handles daily communications; Yahoo News covers current events; Yahoo Sports follows teams and leagues; and Yahoo Finance supports personal finance management. Alongside these, Yahoo offers data and analytics capabilities and omnichannel advertising solutions to partners and advertisers, operating across internet, media, sports, financial services, advertising and communications.

Operating globally for over 30 years, Yahoo has been a trusted guide for hundreds of millions of people around the world. The company positions its work in consumer technology as one requiring, in its words, a touch of humanity. More information is available at https://yahooinc.com/.
