About Matt Young
I’m an operator who’s spent the last decade inside sponsor-backed technology and media companies — building, scaling, and repositioning revenue engines in messy, real-world conditions.I’ve worked closely with investors and executive teams to drive growth, expand EBITDA, and prepare businesses for premium outcomes, including multiple successful exits backed by firms such as Blackstone, Bain Capital, Shamrock, and Thompson Street.Over time, I saw a pattern became impossible to ignore: go-to-market teams generate enormous amounts of data, yet leadership still lacks timely, actionable signal into what’s actually working — especially post-acquisition or at scale.That insight led to AI Value Edge - The Growth Multiple — an operator-built approach to using AI to modernize revenue systems, surface risk and opportunity earlier, and help leadership teams make better decisions faster.I work hands-on with investors, boards, and operating teams, and I’m also open to senior operating roles where AI-driven GTM, value creation, and execution are part of the day-to-day work.
