Meta Platforms, Inc. is a publicly traded American technology conglomerate (NASDAQ: META) headquartered in Menlo Park, California, founded in 2004 as Facebook, Inc. and rebranded in October 2021. It owns and operates the world's largest social media ecosystem—Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Threads—generating ~98% of revenue from digital advertising. The company is actively expanding into artificial intelligence (releasing LLaMA models, Muse Image, and AI assistants), virtual/augmented reality hardware (Meta Quest, Ray-Ban Meta glasses), and infrastructure (leasing AI data centers in India, building cloud computing capacity). Recent moves include a $900 million investment in Indian fintech CRED, appointing CRED founder Kunal Shah to lead WhatsApp globally, and developing prediction market and workforce development initiatives. Despite dominant market position and technical innovation, Meta faces persistent regulatory scrutiny (FTC, EU DMA/DSA), privacy controversies, content moderation challenges, and reputational risk tied to misinformation amplification and youth mental health concerns.
