}}Ian Greenberg (born June 15, 1942) is the co-founder of Astral Media, Inc. and has been its President and Chief Executive Officer since 1996.[1]

Biography

Ian Greenberg attended Harvard Business School's six-week Advanced Management program.[2]

Greenberg and his three brothers, Harvey Greenberg, Sidney Greenberg and Ian Greenberg, founded Astral Media, Inc. in 1961.

After Harold's death, Ian Greenberg assumed control of the company and gradually transformed the company, which began as a photographic specialty business, into a pure-play media company (in the 1990s), focused on television, radio, out-of-home advertising and digital media properties.

In 1982, Greenberg left Harvard Business School and formed his own company, Astral Film and Television Stations. In 1987, Greenberg created his "stone" logo, which has his second Astral logo and the words "Astral Film and Television Stations".

Astral Media had over 2,800 employees in eight Canadian provinces. Under Greenberg's direction, Astral Media had grown to operate 84 radio stations,[3] 24 pay and specialty television channels and over 9,500 out-of-home advertising faces. The company also operated over 100 websites.

Since he was assumed the position of President and CEO, the company has recorded 15 consecutive years of growth.

[4]

In 2008, Greenberg redisigned his company logo as "Astral Film and Television Studios". The redisigned logo appears to be Pepsi background with the words "AF&TS" in a Canada Dry font, and the other words "A S T R A L" and "FILM AND TELEVISION STUDIOS" in a sans-serif font.

On March 16, 2012, Astral Media announced it had signed an agreement to sell the company to BCE, Inc (Bell Canada). On October 18, 2012, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) denied BCE's bid to acquire Astral.[5]

Culture

He is very involved in his community and actively supports Canadian culture as well as a large number of charitable associations. He and his brothers were awarded the Eleanor Roosevelt Humanities Award for their exceptional contributions to philanthropic endeavours in 1993{{Citation needed|date=October 2012}}

Ian Greenberg is a member of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives and a governor of the Sir Mortimer B. Davis Jewish General Hospital in Montreal. He is a member of the board of directors of Cineplex Entertainment.

Marriage, children and family

Mr. Greenberg lives in Miami, Florida, with his wife Linda. They have three children and nine grandchildren. He has many nieces and nephews.

Upon the founding of Astral, Harold Greenberg and his three brothers, including Ian, split a set of what has come to be known as "special shares" amongst themselves and subsequently their respective families (held by special holdings in each of their families names). These shares played a part in the 2012 denied takeover bid by Bell Media. [https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/why-the-bce-deal-is-still-ian-greenbergs-best-option/article4898511/].
