Matt Curry – Author of WSJ Bestseller The A.D.D Entrepreneur
Matt Curry is one of the top auto entrepreneurs in the country. He rans a 10 location auto repair company in Northern Virginia and Maryland. As a passionate automotive enthusiast with over 32 years of automotive aftermarket experience, he realized that there was a need for a trustworthy repair facility. He envisioned a shop that did it all – a shop that performed exceptional work and was staffed with professional, courteous and competent automotive technicians. Curry’s grew to over 150 employees and sold the business for $16 million. In 2008, Matt saw a need in the market to service hybrid vehicle owners and purchased eight Toyota Priuses to learn about these vehicles and show his commitment to hybrid technology. The Hybrid Shop was born. He won the Smart 100 CEO award from SmartCEO Magazine. His business was named to the Inc. 5000 list in 2009, 2010, and 2011.
