Ironman
The Hawaii Triathlon Corporation was the organization that gave birth to the Ironman competition. Dr. James P. Gills purchased the property in 1990 for $3 million. Since then, it has grown to be a substantially larger organization than it was at the outset. Providence Equity Securities purchased the company in 2008 for a total of 85 million dollars. Following that, the Dalian Wanda Group purchased it for $650 million seven years later! It turns out that the Chinese corporation was even required to assume the debt owed by the previous owner to do this. Wanda was overjoyed with the 40 percent net growth that the company experienced year after year. However, it had been successful even before the current arrangement.

Forbes
Forbes published its inaugural edition in September 1917, marking the publication’s 100th anniversary. Is it possible to believe that it has been 103 years since that time? The journal has subsequently grown into a reputable source of information, publishing definitive and dependable rankings of celebrities and businesses. We are confident that you have at least heard of its well-known lists, including the World’s 100 Most Powerful Women and the 30 Under 30 list. Contrary to popular belief, it is no longer owned by an American corporation but rather by a Hong Kong-based corporation named Integrated Whale Media Investments, founded in 2008. Forbes was purchased for $400 million by the company in 2014. We doubt that the readers had seen anything different before and after the purchase was made, though.
