Jason Kilar Biography

Jason Kilar is a technology and media executive and entrepreneur recognized for his influence in the digital media and streaming industries. Kilar began his career at The Walt Disney Company before joining Amazon, where he held senior leadership roles, including vice president and general manager of Amazon's North American media businesses, overseeing books, music, and video categories. He is listed as an inventor on nine patents related to digital media and digital advertising technologies.

Kilar co-founded and served as CEO of Hulu, a joint venture between NBC Universal, Fox Broadcasting Company, and The Walt Disney Company. During his tenure, Hulu established itself as a significant streaming service, pioneering both subscription and ad-supported models. Hulu achieved over $1 billion in sales under his leadership.

He oversaw the launch and global expansion of HBO Max, which reached 61 markets within 22 months. Kilar announced a simultaneous release strategy for Warner Bros. films on HBO Max and in theaters in the US, a move that contributed to WarnerMedia’s record revenue and subscriber growth. During this period, WarnerMedia received multiple industry awards at major events, including the Oscars, Emmys, BAFTAs, Directors Guild Awards, Writers Guild Awards, Producers Guild Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, Critics Choice, AFI, and Golden Globes.

Kilar co-founded and serves as chief executive officer of Hubcap, a digital media company focused on providing tools for online communities. He is also a board member at Wealthfront and Roblox.
