Early Stage Investor
It’s not always about the money – Matt Fates
“I think a lot of individual angels when they’re honest with you, will muse about if this is the best way to make money, but they do it because they love it and they love working with companies they love.”
ABOUT
Matt Fates has been an investor in early-stage technology companies since 1998, first with Norwest Venture Partners, then Ascent Venture Partners (where he is still an active GP), and now with Innospark Ventures (focused on AI-driven businesses), as well as on his own as an angel investor.
He has always loved seeing new technology and software address meaningful problems, but his main passion is working closely with entrepreneurs to help them build their businesses.
