About Matt Fortnow

Matt Fortnow is an entertainment lawyer turned entrepreneur and author.

In the 90’s, Matt co-founded Commissioner.com, the internet’s first fantasy sports service.

Matt grew the company, which created fantasy sports games for the NFL, Major League Baseball, and several others.

In ’99, he sold the company to CBS SportsLine (currently CBS Sports) for mid eight figures.

Previously, as an entertainment lawyer, Matt co-authored the 7th Edition of This Business of Music, the bible of the music industry.

He’s represented a variety of music artists, songwriters, producers and record labels, appeared as a regular featured copyright expert on TV, and lectured internationally.

Since the sale of Commissioner.com, Matt has been consulting entrepreneurs and been involved in various startups as an investor or advisor.

Matt also dove deep into cryptocurrencies and NFTs.

He created the official NFTs for iconic brands such as The Three Stooges and Abbott & Costello, and is also the author of The NFT Handbook (Wiley Publishing), an Amazon bestseller, which is now in 12 languages.
