Douglas Brion is the founder and CEO of Matta, building industrial AI for factory operations from a foundation of research and engineering expertise. With a decade of experience spanning a PhD-level research role at Cambridge’s Institute for Manufacturing, an Enterprise Fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering, and startup acceleration at Cambridge Judge, he blends deep technical rigor with product-minded entrepreneurship. His background in electronic and information engineering (Imperial College) and hands-on work from neural-net testing in C++ to bespoke integrations demonstrates comfort across research, prototyping, and deployment. Based in London, he also brings an uncommon creative side—formal training in music performance—that informs a collaborative, disciplined approach to complex systems.
