You won’t find me on social media. I’m busy building companies.
You won’t find me on social media. I’m busy doing deals. My goal is to be a nexus that connects deals, capital, people, ideas and opportunity. I love putting deals together, connecting with people and finding new and exciting ways to create value in businesses in a wide range of industries and opportunities.
About Matt
I’m the Chairman of Fresh Technology, a Co-Founder and Managing Partner of the Fresh Capital Group and the Partner who has led acquisitions for the Fresh Holdings portfolio for the last 10 years. In that time I’ve acquired more than 25 private companies including ToGoTechnologies, VeggieTables, MicroGenesis, WWISP Inc, CRS Inc, Athenian, and ILJB International.

Fresh Technology has been named to the Inc “Fastest Growing Companies in America” multiple times and has expanded from a business of 4 employees when I acquired majority control in 2011 to a fast growing SaaS business with nearly 70 employees and more than 5000 customers around the world.
Fresh Holdings is a growth investment platform in the food & beverage and restaurant vertical with a portfolio of more than 15 operating companies representing more than $300mm in annual revenue.
