“Scratch beneath the surface of everything interesting and valuable that's happened in fields from gaming to big data and you'll find Matt there smiling. Smiling because he was there before anyone else, realized the value before anyone else, believed in that entrepreneur before anyone else and help them execute before anyone else. If you're starting a company, you couldn't have a better person involved. Also I can't afford to be an LP in any of Matt's fund, but if I could, I would.”
