Matt Rothberg
A Successful Operator Ready to Continue Your Legacy
My passion for entrepreneurship began long before Anchor View Capital. As a high school student on Long Island, I founded a small IT services company. It started with helping individuals, many of them elderly, navigate their tech challenges, and grew to supporting small businesses with their IT infrastructure. That early venture taught me the importance of service, problem-solving, and the deep satisfaction of helping others succeed.
​
Like many, I thought a corporate path was the next step, so I wound down my business after college. I gained invaluable experience at Cisco, eventually leading technical sales for major clients like NASDAQ, and later managed global sales teams at a large IT services firm, working with companies such as HSBC and American Express. These roles honed my skills in scaling operations, managing complex projects, and driving growth in demanding environments.
​
However, the call to entrepreneurship remained strong. Having achieved a level of financial comfort, I made a deliberate choice to return to my original passion. I enrolled at Columbia Business School to further refine my business acumen, specifically to prepare for acquiring and personally operating a great company.
