So this happened: Vox Media Completes Acquisition of Group Nine. Very proud, emotional, exhausted, excited. Big things ahead for this company https://t.co/AJ3ZPQDODG via @voxmedia

[DevonG @DevonGiddon]

And to my friend @BenjLerer - thank you for taking me on the ride of a lifetime.

Grateful for the journey and excited for the next one. (Part 5)

[DevonG @DevonGiddon]

Thank you to all my amazing co-workers I had the pleasure of working alongside over the last 13 years; @amellody @PierceWhite & the best Comms team of all time; all the incredible reporters that helped tell our stories over the years.. (Part 4)

[DevonG @DevonGiddon]

Today, we were officially acquired by Vox Media to become the leading modern media company.

And as the company starts this next phase of its life, I’m going to be leaving to start mine. (Part 3)

[DevonG @DevonGiddon]

Fast forward 13 years… through various mergers and acquisitions, multiple rounds of funding, forming Group Nine, adding 800 employees, offices all over the country… The company grew up. And so did I. I spent a third of my life with this company. (Part 2)

In 2009, just barely out of college, I started working at an “email newsletter for dudes“ called Thrillist. (Part 1)
