The LinkedIn post suggests DeMatteis has previously helped grow multiple businesses from $0 to over $75 million in less than two years and has closed opportunities exceeding $500 million. It also notes leadership roles at Honeywell, GE, and venture-backed firms such as MatrixSpace and Iris Automation Inc, where she has built high-performing teams and cultivated partnerships with Global 50 companies.
As described in the post, DeMatteis has also founded an industry military advisory board aimed at addressing the defense sector’s “valley of death” between innovation and procurement, and has opened markets in more than 110 countries.
