YAHOO! INC.~ WHO WE ARE<\/h3>\n
Yahoo! Inc. is a technology company that provides a variety of services for its online users. It was founded by Stanford University graduates and classmates, Jerry Yang and David Filo in 1994. It became incorporated later in 1995. A year later, in April 1996, it became a publicly traded company [1]<\/a>. Since then Filo has stayed on as one of the company\u2019s key executives, returning to its Board of Directors in 2014<\/a>\u00a0[2]<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Its current CEO, Marissa Mayer<\/a>, who stepped into the position in 2012, worked previously at Google as one of its executives and helped develop many of its popular services like Google Maps and Gmail. She is the sixth person to take over the position of Yahoo! Inc.’s CEO since 2007 [3]<\/a>.<\/p>\n
A majority of Yahoo! Inc.’s profits are gained not through subscriptions or payments from its users but rather through selling advertisement space on its various websites [4]<\/a>.<\/p>\n
