 PROFILE
Combining retail and online ticket sales with citywide entertainment guides on the Internet was a no-brainer for Barry Diller, mastermind behind Ticketmaster (formerly Ticketmaster Online-CitySearch) and chairman of USA Networks, which owns 68% of the firm. As the world's largest ticket retailer, the company sells 83 million event and sports tickets a year from more than 3,500 retail and 18 telephone centers worldwide, as well as on the Web. It also operates Citysearch, a collection of 100 urban hubs worldwide offering access to local information on entertainment, business, news, and other events. The firm was formed in 2001 when Ticketmaster Online-Citysearch bought former parent Ticketmaster Corporation.
