Howard J. Li is a young and dynamic venture capitalist who has made a name for himself in the Silicon Valley. At the age of 20, he joined Ravv, an early backer of SkyDeck fund and Realwear, and has since then been working tirelessly to help startups grow and succeed. With a passion for innovation and a desire to solve social problems through business solutions, Howard is a serial entrepreneur who has founded multiple startups over the past seven years. His entrepreneurial journey started at the age of 14 when he participated in the Young Entrepreneur at Haas program at the Haas School of Business.

After graduating from high school, Howard attended 42 Silicon Valley, a master's program in computer science, where he learned the art of programming and implementing his ideas from scratch. However, his interests eventually led him to drop out and attend community college on a quest for knowledge and education. Still, Howard did not give up on his entrepreneurial dreams and started Ignite Partners soon after to provide professional consulting services to small businesses around the Bay Area. The company generated revenue within the first year and helped four small businesses grow by 10% each month through targeted marketing campaigns.
