About Me

Roberto Irineu Marinho and his two billionaire brothers, Joao Roberto and Jose Roberto, inherited control of Globo, Brazil's largest media group. Grandfather Irineu Marinho started Globo in 1925 with a newspaper. He died 25 days after the first issue was published and his son Roberto took over. Globo Group includes Brazil's largest broadcaster, Rede Globo, Brazil's largest newspaper company and Globosat, Brazil's largest pay TV provider. In December 2017, Roberto Irineu quit as the executive president of the group. For the first time ever, a non-family member assumed that position. He remains vice-president of the board of directors, which is chaired by his brother Joao Roberto Marinho.
