Pittsburgh Innovates
Matrix Solutions expands staff, moves to the North Side
Matrix Solutions, a
leading provider of sales strategy management software for the
media sales industry, has recently added four positions and plans
to add three more staff next week. Matrix has also moved to a
cool, new space in the Williams & Co. building on the North
Side.
Since its beginnings in 2000 as founder Gary Diven's one-man
operation--he started out in his basement--the company has grown
to 35 employees. Matrix's flagship product, MatrixPlus, was designed
to meet the unique advertising sales demands of the media industry,
encompassing print, television, radio, and cable. The firm has
700 customer sites and 10,000 individual users representing more
than 50 media groups throughout North America. In addition, Matrix
was named on the 2007 Inc. Magazine Inner City 100 List.
“Our location in Pittsburgh’s North Shore has supported
the growth of our business,” says company president DJ Cavanaugh.
“In our previous space we were isolated from the rest of
the Pittsburgh technology community. Our new office is a creative
environment designed to encourage and foster innovation and provides
room for future expansion.”
The company’s future growth will be fueled by changes in
the industry itself, Cavanaugh adds. “Demands for business
intelligence tools such as Matrix Solutions’ MatrixPlus
are driven by the need to strategically manage operations and
quickly navigate consolidation of broadcast, radio, online, and
print media ownership.”
The new 15,000 sq. foot space was secured with the help of Cool
Space Locator and renovated by a team of employees who were
instrumental in its open, spacious design with low partitions,
adds Jonathan Danial, company spokesman.
