Matt was the co-founder/CEO of Return Path. Fred Wilson was his lead investor. I was the lead investor for Veripost. The founders of each company talked and, in between efforts to decimate the other, agreed it might be worth merging to survive. I’ve been working with Matt since 2000.

Through this process he raised $2 million.
