Matt Young
CEO at Uservoice
Matt Young is the CEO of UserVoice, the first (and we think best!) product feedback and research tool for software companies around the world. Matt started his professional career as a software developer, right when web browsers were released. He developed innovative solutions on the web well before SaaS and Product Management were the ubiquitous terms they are today.
Over his career, he has pushed for better ways to build software. And through all the changes in development methodologies, he has put the customer at the center of everything his teams have built.
This is what attracted him to UserVoice — an opportunity to make sure that teams building complex software solutions have direct access to the intended users — to make sure that the problems any company or development team are solving are actually worth solving.
