Fabric Media founder and CEO Jason Damata is difficult to describe in words. He’s a marketer, business consultant and media analyst. He’s made Advertising Age’s prestigious '40 Under 40' list and has spent time touring the country for CSPAN educating the public about media.
Above all else, Damata is a family man in the most altruistic sense imaginable. He’s a modern-day Godfather to an ever-growing list of collaborators and partners working with Fabric Media, the business accelerator and marketing consortium he founded more than 10 years ago comprised of creative individuals rallied around innovative companies, artists and social good causes.
