About Matt
Matt Pfeil graduated from Virginia Tech in 2005 with a BS in Computer Science. His career has followed startups. Out of school he joined Webmail.us, an email hosting company that was acquired by Rackspace before their 2008 IPO. He then started DataStax, a cloud database company, and TravelBoss, an AI based corporate travel software solution. He is also the entrepreneur-in-residence at Top Tier Capital.
Matt will discuss lessons learned through his ~20 year career in west coast startups. He'll cover the things he wish he could change, the things he really appreciated, and the Do's and Don'ts from his experience across multiple startups - and a venture capital firm.
