Matt Marx is an Assistant Professor of Technological Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Strategic Management at MIT Sloan. Drawing on his own experience working in both Silicon Valley and Boston startups, he studies systematic, institutional barriers to the growth of new ventures. His current research focuses on the implications of employee non-compete agreements, which are ostensibly used to protect trade secrets but may also impact interorganizational and cross-regional mobility, utilization of expertise, and the ability of small companies to attract talent. In other work, he examines strategy formation in new ventures as well as the allocation of equity among co-founders.
Professor Marx was previously an inventor and an executive at multiple startup companies in the speech recognition industry. As VP of professional services at Tellme Networks, he led a team of 75 in growing annualized revenue from $5MM to over $100MM.
