Dan Matthews

I'm a journalist and author specialising in start-ups and growing businesses. I write for The Telegraph, Raconteur Reports in The Times Newspaper, Forbes and a range of other quality publications.

I founded LaunchLab.co.uk in 2007, which went bust in 2010, and I learned some important (and expensive) lessons about running a business.

In past roles I have either created or recreated versions of BusinessEurope.com, RealBusiness.co.uk, Startups.co.uk and LondonLovesBusiness.com. I've also contributed to Smarta.com, The Marketer, Real Business Magazine - so I've got about a bit.

MinuteHack's parent company is Black Heart Media Ltd, which I founded in 2010.
