Chris Stang is the Co-Founder & CEO of The Infatuation,and also serves as CEO of Zagat. Since its inception in 2009, Stang has been the architect of The Infatuation’s editorial voice, creative vision, and marketing strategy. Today his role still encompasses all those things, but also includes pushing the company forward into new arenas,
including the development of The Infatuation’s EEEEEATSCON food festival, and leading the company’s recent acquisition of Zagat from Google.
He was nominated in 2015 for a James Beard Award for Humor Writing, and in 2019 the Financial Times called him “arguably the most influential restaurant reviewer in America.”
Prior to taking on The Infatuation full time, Chris was the Vice President of Marketing at Atlantic Records, working closely with many of the label’s biggest acts including Coldplay, Bruno Mars, Skrillex, Gnarls Barkley, and the Panic! At The Disco.
