Sarasota Magazine, previously owned by SagaCity Media, one of the nation's largest regional publishers, has long been a trusted source of news, culture and lifestyle content. With a rich history spanning over four decades, the magazine has earned a reputation for its award-winning journalism, insightful features and comprehensive coverage of local events and happenings.

"We are thrilled to welcome Sarasota Magazine into the DreamLarge family and, more significantly, bring it home to Sarasota," said Anand Pallegar, CEO of DreamLarge. "As a company deeply rooted in the values of community, creativity and social responsibility, we see tremendous potential in this partnership to amplify the voices of Sarasota and empower them to shape the future of their city."

DreamLarge is renowned for its community initiatives, nonprofit partnerships and innovative approach to business that place equal emphasis on profit and purpose. Through its diverse portfolio of ventures, DreamLarge has demonstrated a steadfast commitment to driving positive change and fostering sustainable development in the communities it serves.

"We are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead as part of the DreamLarge family," said Cooper Levey-Baker, editor in chief of Sarasota Magazine. "This partnership aligns with our mission to inform, inspire and celebrate Sarasota, and we plan to continue to serve our readers with the same dedication and passion they have come to expect from us since our founding in 1979. We are thrilled to be entering this new era and look forward to continuing to deliver exceptional storytelling and design for another 45 years-and beyond."

Under DreamLarge's stewardship, Sarasota Magazine will continue to operate independently, preserving its editorial integrity and commitment to excellence while benefiting from the resources and expertise of its new parent company.
