Matt Symes, CEO & Founding Partner
Symplicity Designs
Matt Symes is a serial entrepreneur, a recovering academic, and a marathoner. As a founding partner of Symplicity Designs, Matt has been the organization's CEO for ten years. Matt has helped over 500 organizations and institutions both scale and recover from some of their darkest moments. He brings a reality check to leadership teams, works with them to confront the brutal facts, and specializes in developing sound strategies to navigate through uncertain times.
In addition to Symplicity Designs, Matt also manages a portfolio of companies of which he holds a majority or minority stake, including bio-tec, signage and vehicle wrapping, meal prep and delivery, geospatial building modeling, bookkeeping, online learning, and an experiential retail coffee shop.

He sits on the Board at Groupe Savoie and is a Strategic advisor for an 80M IT firm. Matt also goes out of his way to embrace leading-edge environmentally sustainable practices at his companies, no matter how much effort and resources are required. Matt believes in stoicism – that we all have 100 percent control over our mindset. With that frame of mind, it’s possible to do almost anything, and he enjoys solving complex problems.
