When asked about joining Matchbook AI, Wes had this to say:
“As an advisor and mentor to several accelerators and incubators, I had the opportunity to review hundreds of start-ups. Many had strong technical teams but the most critical factor is always, do you add value to a customer. After my first meeting with Rushabh, I was so impressed with what Matchbook has been able to accomplish in such a short time. Rarely does a young company win business in general at an early-stage, let alone the major brand names that Matchbook has won. I love the company culture they are building and they are hyper-focused on delivering real value to their customers. I am so excited to join the team and help accelerate their customer successes.”
