Penske Media Corporation was founded by Jay Penske in 2003. It began as an affinity marketing and internet services company called Velocity Services, Inc. The company acquired the Mail.com domain and was renamed to the Mail.com Media Corporation (MMC). By 2008, the company owned digital entertainment properties like OnCars.com, Hollywood Life, Movieline, and MailTimes in addition to operating the Mail.com portal and email service. In mid-2008, the company received a $35 million growth equity round of financing from Quadrangle Capital Partners, a leading private equity fund.
In early 2009, the company announced the purchase of Deadline Hollywood Daily (now known as Deadline.com). The website had previously been operated by publisher LA Weekly.
In February 2010, MMC finalized and announced a joint venture with Zee TV for the creation of the new India.com web portal and seven other portals, to compete with other major web portals.
In April 2010, MMC purchased Jonathan Geller's Boy Genius Report (BGR), a tech and gadget blog, for an undisclosed amount of money. MMC moved the blog to a new URL (BGR.com) and also introduced a broader spectrum of technology coverage. Geller remained the website's Editor in Chief after the sale.
In 2012, MMC re-branded itself as Penske Media Corporation. In October 2012, PMC purchased Variety Inc., including the weekly Variety magazine, Daily Variety, Variety.com, and all associated assets, for a reported $25 million from Reed Elsevier. PMC received financial backing from hedge fund Third Point LLC. Some of PMC's early changes to Variety's business plan included eliminating the website's paywall, ceasing the printing of Daily Variety, and investing more in the digital platform, Variety.com. The paywall was taken down on March 1, 2013, and, after 80 years of publication, the last print edition of Daily Variety was issued on March 19, 2013. A redesigned Variety magazine launched on March 26, 2013.
In late 2014, PMC purchased Fairchild Fashion Media from Condé Nast for just under $100 million. Under the terms of the deal, PMC obtained ownership of Fairchild's print and digital media properties including Women's Wear Daily (WWD), Footwear News, Beauty Inc., and others.
