Refinery29 Seeks to Become Global Media Brand

Financial Times: Lifestyle website Refinery29 is launching its first international editions, as it looks to build a global media brand aimed at young women. The company will expand to the U.K. in November, followed by Germany and France in early 2016, and other markets over the next two years. This follows a $50 million funding round earlier this year that included investment from WPP, the advertising company, and Scripps Networks Interactive, owner of the Food Network.
