Alibaba operates leading online and mobile marketplaces in retail and wholesale trade, as well as cloud computing and other services. The company provides technology and services to enable consumers, merchants, and other participants to conduct commerce in our ecosystem.
Alibaba Group was founded in 1999 by 18 people led by Jack Ma, a former English teacher from Hangzhou, China. Our founders started our company to champion small businesses, in the belief that the Internet would level the playing field by enabling small enterprises to leverage innovation and technology to grow and compete more effectively in the domestic and global economies.
