Former Fortune CEO Alan Murray Joins Wall Street Journal to Lead Events Business

Alan Murray, the former CEO of Fortune, is set to join The Wall Street Journal this fall, where he will play a crucial role in expanding its events business. Murray, who was with Fortune for nearly a decade, left the company in April. His departure comes amid Fortune's efforts to double its revenue by 2027, following the exit of three executives, including its longtime CEO. Murray's non-compete was waived upon his exit. Murray's move to The Wall Street Journal is seen as a strategic step in bolstering the publication's events division.
