Matthew Pritzker

The Matthew Pritzker Company has a portfolio of investments in companies such as cameo, SpaceX, Fairgrounds Craft Coffee & Tea, and Blaze Pizza, as well as continued investments in real estate. In 2012 Pritzker bought a stake in the Colson Group, a caster manufacturing company that his father Robert Pritzker had helped build decades earlier.

In 2008, following a series of successful real estate investments, he formed The Matthew Pritzker Company. The company focuses on building businesses across a variety of industries—including real estate, technology, media, consumer, and manufacturing. Crain's Chicago Business named Pritzker to their “40 under 40” list of businesspeople, when he was 29.

After family patriarch Jay Pritzker died in 1999, the extended Pritzker family began restructuring the family's businesses and assets. In the course of that process, issues came to light which Pritzker's younger sister, Liesel, raised in a lawsuit against certain trustees, advisers, and beneficiaries. Pritzker eventually joined his sister's lawsuit, which the parties successfully resolved two years later. In January 2005, the press speculated that Pritzker received about $500 million in a settlement agreement.
