CEO Matt Kunkel projects "an amazing year" for IPOs and mergers throughout 2025. He says "lots of capital" on the sidelines will fuel "pent-up demand" for innovation. Newer names, combined with bullish Big Tech trends, will fuel the industry for several years, according to Matt. However, he says there needs to be more A.I. governance to monitor how companies utilize advancing technology. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Innovation comes in many forms, and compliance professionals must be ready for and embrace it. Today, I visited with Matt Kunkel, CEO of LogicGate, and Nick Kathmann, CISO at LogicGate, to consider how a dynamic GRC can help drive efficiency, compliance, and profitability. With a background in business analysis and self-taught coding, Kunkel identified a need for a more comprehensive and user-friendly approach to governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) solutions, leading to the creation of Logic Gate. The platform was designed to meet businesses' evolving needs without requiring constant developer intervention, utilizing a flexible data model and advanced graph database technology for superior efficiency. Kathmann, with over 20 years of experience in security and compliance, stresses the importance of industry expertise in delivering effective solutions, focusing on ensuring the platform meets the highest security standards and adapts to changing business requirements seamlessly. Kunkel and Kathmann's perspectives highlight the crucial role of innovative technology in simplifying GRC processes and addressing the complex regulatory, risk, and compliance needs of organizations.

Tim Schumm and Matt Kunkel discuss the impact of COVID-19, leading during uncertain times, and the role of GRC before/during a crisis.
In this episode, Matt Kunkel, the co-founder, and CEO of LogicGate, discusses the importance of mentors and relationships. Matt co-founded LogicGate, a Chicago based SaaS platform which operationalizes regulatory, risk, and compliance programs for organizations, just over 4 years ago and has quickly grown it to 120+ employees and raised $35 million. Matt discusses the critical role mentors played in his growth, his focus as a leader in this time of crisis and what he's doing to help his team feel more in control and more informed in this time of uncertainty.
Matt Kunkel saw a need in the market for “a platform that could act as a central nucleus and bring together and automate in a flexible, easy fashion, all of the different components that make up a traditional governance, risk and compliance regulatory program.” He, together with John Siegler and Dan Campbell, founded LogicGate to fulfil that need. Matt joins Tom Fox on this week’s show to talk about LogicGate’s GRC platform and how it helps businesses improve their bottom line. Every Business Needs a GRC Champion Matt wants to give business leaders the keys to the kingdom from a technology perspective. Leaders should be able to own and maintain Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) technology that grows and evolves alongside the company’s growth and evolution. A well run GRC program has multiple stakeholders throughout the organization, he points out, especially a champion who will advocate for a culture of risk and compliance. He shares six tips for choosing the best GRC solution. Managing Third Party Risk Tom asks about the key exposure points in third party risk and how LogicGate’s solution helps to manage those risks. Matt responds that the best GRC program is only as good as the third parties we use and the programs they have in place. He explains the role of their platform in managing third party risk as well as performing due diligence. Risk is Good Matt explains why all businesses should have a Business Continuity Playbook: it’s your Bible to tell you what to do when a disaster strikes, he says. He emphasizes that risk is good. “Risk is good. Companies are built and scaled and grow and achieve great things because they take on… additional strategic risk,” he remarks. It’s about evaluating where risk lies and taking the necessary mitigating steps that would enable you to take on more risk and drive better business outcomes. “I hope that we as an industry can elevate compliance professionals, risk professionals, security professionals to a spot where we can help the organization make strategic decisions based on risk to drive better top line outcomes, more revenue for the business. It’s not just about asset protection, it's about revenue generation,” he comments. Resources LogicGate.com LogicGate on LinkedIn | Twitter Matt Kunkel on LinkedIn Learn more about your ad choices.

Post By: Adam Turteltaub The shift to remote work is having a dramatic impact on how compliance teams approach their work. Matt Kunkel, CEO and CO-Founder of LogicGate explains that this provide an opportunity to review not just the risk profile of the organization but the relationship with the business unit. As business reconfigures how it operates, compliance professionals have a unique opportunity to partner with the business in identifying new processes and how to manage them. While doing so he recommends demonstrating a great deal of empathy, understanding that in times of change it will be difficult to be fully compliant in some areas, but that a culture of compliance must continue. Listen in to learn more about the risks of the current era, and the opportunities as well.
What do you get when you cross innovation and pioneering? CEO Matt Kunkel and Chief Product Officer Jon Siegler — AKA two of the three founders of LogicGate. Historically, the old-school GRC software space aimed to operationalize regulatory risk and compliance and security programs in two ways: 1) Using technology platforms with rigid data models and 2) Using point solutions — that don’t integrate well with other applications — to solve specific use cases, third-party risk and more. In Matt and Jon’s opinion, that’s why The Risk Cloud™ represents a departure from what we know about GRC. In this episode of GRC & Me, tune in to hear how these visionaries have disrupted the GRC industry with The LogicGate Risk Cloud, a platform that presents a solution and has the flexibility to reimagine what risk is entirely. With host Megan Phee, they discuss The Risk Cloud’s extensibility at length, especially what it enables companies (and risk managers!) to do. After listening, ask yourself this: How can The LogicGate Risk Cloud enable effective risk operation for you?

Michael is joined by Matt Kunkel, Director of the Migrant Workers Centre in Melbourne, who warns that jobless migrants in dire financial hardship need welfare support to avoid becoming homeless and contributing to a public health crisis. He says people were "literally begging for food on Facebook" and those at risk of becoming homeless would find it difficult to self-isolate to contain the spread of infection. “We cannot afford to leave anyone behind. Excluding 1.1 million temporary visa holders from any income support will push them onto the streets at a time when food and housing security is essential for fighting this pandemic.” “If we don’t expand the wage subsidy to include temporary migrant workers they will be forced on to the streets at the height of a pandemic – we can’t allow this to happen and this is why over 100 organisations have come together to call for a wage subsidy that covers all workers.”

Governance, risk and compliance (GRC) software is deeply unsexy, extremely important and mostly unexplored — until now, thanks to LogicGate. Matt Kunkel, co-founder and CEO of LogicGate, understands GRC has a dreary reputation — and he’s happy to be part of the team working to make it easy. He and his co-founders designed a platform enabling companies to put together their own GRC program using drag and drop.

The working class is under attack in Australia from many sides. One of the ways that capitalists and governments try to undermine workers organisations and conditions is by bringing in temporary migrant workers.These workers are especially prone to exploitation due to the temporary status of their working visas as well as their unfamiliarity of the laws and culture in Australia. While some unions have been successful at organising these groups of workers, many migrant workers face terrible working conditions.The Migrant Workers Centre was recently set up in Melbourne, Australia to help these groups of workers.
