Meet Jazwares' Founder
Judd Zebersky is the founder of Jazwares. He launched Jazwares in 1997 after leaving his legal practice to pursue a passion for play and creativity. What began as a simple idea has grown into a global business built on innovation, strategic partnerships, and a strong commitment to bringing brands to life through meaningful products.
Today, Jazwares is recognized for an award-winning portfolio of owned and licensed brands spanning toys, plush, collectibles, and consumer lifestyle categories. Along the way, Jazwares’ growth has been shaped by a focus on creativity, brand-building, and staying closely connected to what inspires kids, families, and fans around the world. Judd has been recognized for entrepreneurial achievement and leadership impact, including honors from the South Florida Business Journal and recognition within the global licensing industry. Under his long-term vision, Jazwares has also earned significant workplace and innovation-related distinctions.
From the beginning, giving back has been part of who we are. Judd helped establish Jazwares Cares early in our history, creating a philanthropic platform that has donated millions of toys and supported initiatives focused on children’s health, well-being, and educational development through play. Judd earned a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and a Juris Doctor from the University of Miami School of Law.
