Summary
I've had the view from both sides of the table, initially startup investing with an early stage VC fund and then building and successfully exiting two software companies with my talented teammates. Starting in Silicon Valley to Berlin and now in Madrid, today I partner with companies to help them accelerate from whiteboard to revenues. Currently I am the CEO of Xara GmbH where our mission is to bring business content to life. Our flagship product is Xara Cloud, a drag and drop document design and editing platform. Xara transforms the way businesses create, collaborate and control content, directly resulting in increased revenues and improved brand. If you’d like to share stories, learn how Xara can help your company or grab a cup of coffee, please reach out via email (matt@xara.com).
