Glam.com (formerly Mode Media, Inc. Project Y, Glam Media) was a digital lifestyle media company where content was produced by anyone but reviewed by professional editors prior to publishing. In 2013, Mode Media had a valuation of about $1 billion as the company prepped for an IPO. In 2015, Mode Media had grown to over $100 million in revenue, primarily from providing native content, branded video and digital advertising to large brands but had over $100 million in expenses.[2]
On 15 September 2016, Mode Media abruptly shut down its operations.[3]
In 2022, Glam was acquired by Static Media, a media company based in Indianapolis, Indiana.
