Former Studio & Cinema Exec Matt Garelik Joins GreenSlate Team
GreenSlate is pleased to announce Matt Garelik has joined the team as the Executive Vice President of Business Development & Studio Relations based in Los Angeles. Matt brings an extensive background working across the entertainment industry.
From his early days at Disney and Twentieth Century Fox, through working as the VP of Business Development & Studio Relations at Barco, the Chief Revenue Officer at Monoplex Theatres, and the Head of Innovation at National Amusements Inc., Matt has a proven track record of building successful businesses, developing go-to-market strategies, and guiding world-class companies and startups through a variety of growth phases and challenges in multiple facets of the entertainment industry.
"We are thrilled to welcome Matt Garelik to the GreenSlate team," said Mike Leiba, President of GreenSlate. "The entertainment industry is experiencing a contraction. It’s at these moments that studios and productions lean into innovation. GreenSlate has a definite advantage with our all-in-one production accounting and payroll app, and Matt’s experience in bringing innovative offerings to market will be a valuable asset as we continue to expand."
"I'm looking forward to contributing to the company's growth," said Matt. "As the groundswell around their all-in-one platform has already shown, GreenSlate is a real game-changer for industry leaders, producers, studios, and production finance teams. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to enhancing operations through technology-enabled services, and I am excited to bring my experience to the team at GreenSlate."
"Matt understands both the business and the human side of delivering better technology," said Mike. "The larger the budget, the greater the efficiency. From onboarding huge crews to managing every cent of the production budget with our general ledger accounting tools, historically, this has driven greater efficiency and savings. But the human side of it is great too. We help support work-life balance for the accounting teams that are in our software every day."
Already an influential and trusted communicator within the industry, Matt will focus on supporting relationships with studio partners and large-budget productions as they transition from legacy solutions to a production finance platform specifically designed for digital workflows and real-time access to data.

“If you're not using GreenSlate for processing production payroll, then you're not thinking clearly. We run about 10–12 productions a year and have used several of their competitors. I've put off sharing this as I've truly felt they've been a competitive advantage.”
