It's also the IETF Internet standard and does not collect venture capital.

Matrix is looked after the Matrix.org Foundation which is non-profit and doesn't collect venture capital either: https://matrix.org/foundation.

(It's true that many contributions to Matrix come from Element, though, the VC-funded for-profit founded by the original Matrix team in order to pay for us to keep the lights on and keep working on Matrix. Just as VC-funded Jabber Inc contributed massively to XMPP, back in the day).

I’m working on a project management app for small businesses using Matrix. I’ve been inspired by your work and the transparency with which the team operates and the business model you have pursued and succeeded at. I’m also stunned by the technology recently being deployed in Dendrite.

Is one of the best ways to support Matrix and grow the influence to hire Element’s team as consultants to build custom implementations and use cases?
