Matthew Beckner is an engineer and entrepreneur, best known as the co-founder of Blue Canyon Technologies, an innovative aerospace startup that achieved remarkable success under his leadership. Mr. Beckner, alongside a pair of cofounders who each invested $100, grew the company organically from its humble beginnings into a 350-person company, gaining worldwide recognition for its innovative high-performance small spacecraft. The company was recognized on the Inc. 5000 list in 2021 as one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States and was awarded the "Best of 2020" award by SpaceNews. Blue Canyon Technologies was acquired by Raytheon Technologies in 2020.

Matt's unique ability to condense ideas into a straightforward plan is one of the reasons BCT was such a success. If only we had this book when we started!" - George Stafford, CoFounder and Former CEO, Blue Canyon Technologies "The book that I wish I had decades ago as I was starting my journey. It is balanced and a good narrative in and out from conceptual to experiential." - Tom Kubancik, Founder, Executive VP, Trusted Space, Inc
