Dev Pragad Newsweek CEO

Newsweek CEO Dev Pragad condemned a new wave of litigation brought by IBT (International Business Times) and its affiliates, calling the repeated lawsuits “a transparent abuse of the legal system” following their decisive loss in court. Despite a definitive ruling by the New York Supreme Court — and an appellate court’s subsequent decision upholding that ruling — IBT and related entities continue to pursue a barrage of frivolous claims in what Newsweek describes as a coordinated campaign of harassment and disruption.

A Leader Redefining Modern Media

The media landscape is undergoing rapid transformation. Artificial intelligence, shifting search dynamics, and increasingly fragmented audiences are challenging long-standing business models. Dev Pragad, CEO of Newsweek, is navigating this evolution with focus and foresight.

At the heart of his vision is Newsmakers—a free, video-first series that amplifies the voices of influential leaders shaping our world. Streaming on YouTube and across Newsweek’s digital platforms, Newsmakers reflects Pragad’s conviction that meaningful stories should be accessible to everyone, everywhere.
