CEO
Hulu

Under Kilar's leadership, Hulu – in case you haven’t heard of it, it’s an online TV service that has changed how we view television – has grown to become a leading provider of premium online video with more than 260 professional content providers, 30 million unique monthly users and $260 million in annual revenue. He joined Hulu after nearly a decade at Amazon.com, where he wrote the original business plan for Amazon's entry into the video and DVD businesses and then became VP and general manager of Amazon's North American media businesses, which included the company's books, music, video and DVD categories. Fresh out of Harvard Business School, he worked for Disney Design & Development.
