Carrott Rewards is an app that helps people meet their personal health and fitness goals using a habit-based system. Matt has had an international journey starting in PR and Lobbying in London, UK then moving over to Singapore then creating a venture lab for the billionaire Air Asia founder and ex-virgin executive Tony Fernandes in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
