Matthew Smith is the founder and CEO of Upitch, an innovative app that connects business owners with investors at the click of a button.

Matt has experienced it all—millions of pounds, supercars, luxurious homes, followed by hitting rock bottom and losing it all, only to rise again, and then face another fall. His journey is a testament to the resilience required to succeed in the entrepreneurial world.
