From the world of hedge funds to the world of furry friends, Mathé has a proven track record for investing in disruptive, market leading businesses. A Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient, he was recognized early on in his career for his sharp acumen and ability to manage complex investment strategies for some of the top Wall Street firms.
