Bloomberg Media’s Joshua Topolsky One Of Crain’s Top ‘40 Under 40’
Gail Chiasson, North American Editor
Congratulations to Joshua Topolsky, Bloomberg Media’s chief digital content officer, for being named one of Crain’s Top ’40 Under 40’ in New York business.
Topolsky, who admits to being a high school dropout, ‘eats lunch at the desk, has an iPhone, wears jeans and chucks, is scattered, in a creative way, uses social media three-to-five times a day’ according to Crain’s announcement of the ’40 Under 40’.
Hailing from Pittsburgh, the former DJ was named editor of techie webzine Engadget in 2008, then, in 2011, co-founded The Verge, a tech-news website that launched with four million unique viewers – and gained an additional 10 million by 2014, when Vox Media, its parent company, was valued at more than $200 million.
Justin Smith, Bloomberg Media CEO, hired Topolsky last summer to bring his multiplatform news model to the company.
Since then, Topolsky has made a number of key hires and, in January, launched Bloomberg’s new website.
