📣 Announcing LOI Venture - Fund I
In 2017, Ryan Holmes launched League of Innovators because there was a shortage of mentorship for young entrepreneurs.
Today, Manny Padda and Holmes are teaming up to announce a $20M venture fund because there’s a shortage of capital for founders under 30.
Here’s the longer story:
Having started his first business in high school - pre-social media days - Ryan believes there is no reason age should hinder somebody with a bright idea.
It took him 20 years to go from my first entrepreneurial endeavour to building Hootsuite.

Holmes and Padda are launching LOI Venture so they can accelerate more early-stage startups who enrol in the LOI - League of Innovators programs.
Since the start, LOI has witnessed almost a billion dollars of enterprise value created from 250+ founders in residence.
Some notable names include:
