BusinessWeek is a business magazine published by McGraw-Hill. It was first published in 1929 (as The Business Week) under the direction of Malcolm Muir, who was serving as president of the McGraw-Hill Publishing company at the time.[1] Its primary competitors in the national business magazine category are Fortune and Forbes, which are published bi-weekly.

Businessweek discontinued its European and Asian editions in 2005. The press release[2] of 07 December 2005 issued by McGraw-Hill stated that it had decided to deliver a single global edition instead of providing separate regional ones.

Since 1988, BusinessWeek has published annual rankings of United States business school MBA programs.[3] In 2006, it also started publishing annual rankings of undergraduate business programs.[4]

On October 12, 2007, BusinessWeek launched a revamped design, its first in four years. Several sections were redesigned to focus the publication more on news and global coverage, while eliminating the Executive Life section.
