Nick Beim, a General Partner in the Waltham office, focuses primarily on Internet and software investments. Nick serves on the boards of TheLadders.com, Care.com, Conductor, Gilt Groupe, and Intent Media. Previous investments include JBoss (acquired by Red Hat) and OatSystems (acquired by Checkpoint Systems). Prior to Matrix, Nick advised a variety of technology companies on strategic, operational and financial issues at McKinsey & Co and Goldman, Sachs & Co. 

Nick graduated from Stanford University and holds an M.Phil. from Oxford University, where he was a Marshall Scholar. Nick also serves on the board of Endeavor, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping entrepreneurs in developing countries.

“Nick has been enormously valuable to my companies. He is incredibly accessible and is always available to pitch in. At the Gilt Groupe, Nick introduced us to three major hires: our chief executive officer, the general manager of our travel subsidiary and the general manager of our Japanese operations. He has contributed significantly on strategic discussions and has been a lot of fun to work with.”
 
--Kevin Ryan, co-founder and chairman of the Gilt Groupe, co-founder and CEO
  of AlleyCorp, investor in TheLadders.com, former chief executive officer of
  DoubleClick

“Nick is professional, thoughtful, kind and sharp.  He steps back and lets you run your company, taking more of a consultative approach, as in, ‘You know more about your business than I do, but you might consider this.’”
 
--Sheila Marcelo, founder and chief executive officer, Care.com
