This luxury lifestyle brand connects influential and affluent audiences across digital, print, and experiential platforms. Under his leadership, he expanded his role as a media innovator, establishing DuJour as a leader in high-end publishing.

Jason is also recognized for his dedication to philanthropy. He uses his resources and platform to support various charitable efforts.

For over 30 years, he has worked within the intersection of media, luxury, and celebrity culture.

Before founding DuJour Media, Binn established Niche Media in 1992, producing publications catering to various cities' unique interests. His magazines reached audiences in many locations, including Aspen Peak, Boston Common, Capitol File, Hamptons, Ocean Drive, Gotham, Los Angeles Confidential, Michigan Avenue, Philadelphia Style, and Vegas. These publications shaped regional luxury publishing and strengthened Binn's reputation in the industry.

Through these city-focused magazines, Jason connected with specific audiences while giving each publication a character that reflected the energy of its location, including Miami, the Hamptons, and New York City. Niche Media also developed a custom publishing division that produced publications for Art Basel Miami Beach, Wynn Las Vegas, and the Short Hills Mall for the Taubman real estate organization.

Expanding Niche Media into a national platform and successfully selling the company marked an essential chapter in his career. In 2006, Binn sold Niche Media to Greenspun Media Group while continuing to serve as CEO. In 2007, Greenspun Media Group acquired Ocean Drive Media Group, which he co-owned and founded. He continued to manage and oversee operations until resigning in 2010.

In 2012, Jason launched DuJour Media, which connects high-net-worth audiences through digital content, print editions, and live events. DuJour's continued growth reflects his commitment to understanding audiences while sharing stories that highlight trends and culture. His ability to collaborate with brands and public figures has helped sustain DuJour’s relevance and growth.

His work with DuJour has received recognition, including honors at the Webby Awards. His contributions to building platforms that bridge business, entertainment, and philanthropy have been acknowledged through awards such as the Ernst & Young “Entrepreneur of the Year Award,” Crain’s “40 Under 40,” and recognition from Forbes and the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce.

DuJour recently celebrated its 13th anniversary, reflecting on its growth and influence in the luxury media industry. Last year, Binn and his team hosted an event at The Hard Rock Hotel in New York featuring a cover star. In March 2025, he hosted another event in New York City, celebrating DuJour’s Spring cover with an actress.

Philanthropy remains an integral part of his personal and professional life. Jason has supported causes focused on health, children, and community needs, using his platforms to raise awareness and support for these missions. He also co-founded the Binn Animal Rescue and Sanctuary Charitable Foundation, which is dedicated to helping needy animals.

He was born in Roslyn Harbor, New York, and attended Boston University’s College of Communication. He values time spent with his family and children.

Jason Binn continues to combine his commitment to media and philanthropy while maintaining a meaningful presence within the industries and communities he serves.
