News Observer: Jason Kilar, an alum of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, was a commencement speaker at his alma mater on Sunday. The founder and CEO of Vessel and founding CEO of Hulu described to graduates how he took a risk on Hulu, despite the naysayers who publicly ridiculed the idea. “The typical human response in the face of the new is to ignore, mock or dismiss it,” Kilar said. “New is scary. New is the unknown. Most everyone does not believe that the new will work … until it does.”
