Matthew Jester

Former NFL linebacker. Princeton graduate. Texas native.

I spent years playing at the highest level of sports before moving to the other side of the industry, building and investing in the companies that shape it.

I'm a Partner at CNC Partners, where I work alongside institutional capital to source, structure, and scale the sports, media, and entertainment ecosystem's most consequential opportunities.

Sports, media, and entertainment are the arenas where modern society assigns value and expresses collective life. This channel and my newsletter, At the Center, are where I break down the structural patterns behind that world.
