Matter: Powering the Next Generation of Breakout Media Companies

Matter: Powering the Next Generation of Breakout Media Companies

I just accepted an invitation to be a mentor at Matter, a startup accelerator in San Francisco. Matter is focused squarely on media entrepreneurs. If you're an entrepreneur looking to create the next breakout media company, I recommend checking it out. Also worthwhile is Turner & Warner Bros' Media Camp program. (Here's Socialize's demo day preso from Media Camp, class of 2012. We've since sold Socialize to ShareThis.)

I'll also be holding "asynchronous office hours" on this blog, in the Community section. If you're an entrepreneur and want to post with any thoughts, advice, or challenges you're facing, I and other entrepreneurs will be happy to have a conversation with you that other founders can participate in. It's a way for us to share knowledge.

The picture above is a screenshot from the Matter promo video, showing Brendan Baker talking about an analysis he did around AppMakr's $1MM fundraising round. We also recently decided to sell AppMakr as a matter of "focusing on focus," which I talk about here.

I'm looking forward to the opportunity to connect with great media entrepreneurs!
