Matt Walker
Founder & CEO, The BLK Community
Known by many as King Midas, Matt Walker has spent more than two decades doing what he loves most—connecting people with opportunities.
As an entrepreneur, real estate professional since 2017, business owner, husband, father of four, and founder of The Midastouch Group, LLC, Matt has always believed that relationships are one of the most valuable forms of wealth.
Throughout his career, he’s helped individuals buy, sell, rent, and invest in real estate while building businesses centered around service, trust, and community.
The BLK Community was born from a simple observation:
Finding Black-owned businesses shouldn’t be difficult.
Matt envisioned one place where entrepreneurs could gain visibility, consumers could intentionally support Black businesses, and communities everywhere could build stronger economic connections.
That vision became The BLK Community.
Today, Matt continues working to create a platform that doesn’t simply list businesses—it helps businesses grow.
