Matthew Liberto and the business of going somewhere
A dart sent him toward the North Pole. Cocoa took him to West Africa. At Napkin, Matthew Liberto is trying to make the next journey easier for other entrepreneurs.
Napkin Inc.
Napkin Inc. is a Miami-founded, Abu Dhabi-incorporated company that buys, builds and grows cash-flowing digital service providers - creative agencies, SaaS, fintech and e-commerce shops - and rolls them into a shared, revenue-sharing structure it likens to turning digital transactions into tradable royalty streams. Led by co-founder and CEO Matthew Liberto, the company batches acquisitions of 'digital disruptors' and gives selling founders and staff common equity rather than the preferred-heavy terms of a traditional private-equity fund. Its work has since expanded into Napkin Deals, an online marketplace connecting buyers, sellers and capital providers across M&A, financing and digital-asset transactions.
