The meeting in this regard will take place in the form of session and the procedure will last from Wednesday to Friday. In this format the leaders plan to decide the future of the largest company. They will decide if they want to sell only Yahoo, or its limited shares in Alibaba too.
Among the potential buyers are private investment funds. Management has decided to come to this decision, because it failed to cope with the hard times that came into the company, – says Yahoo’s CEO Marissa Mayer. Therefore, to save the company they began to look for the other decisions and opted now for selling.
