About Rich Lee
I love building and growing businesses. I\'m currently Founder & Executive Chairman of New Era ADR, a VC-backed technology company saving precious time and money for individuals and businesses, bringing long-desired yet never-before-seen certainty and predictability to the legal dispute process, up to 90% reductions in time and cost, and revolutionizing how disputes are resolved in the U.S.Before this, I served on executive teams of two VC-backed technology companies (one in AI/data science, the other in fintech) that I helped build and scale through rapid growth and one acquisition so far. Before that, I led market development in Asian markets for two companies. I also serve as a board member, advisor, and investor in cutting-edge companies and with local and national non-profits. My investments cut across a diverse set of technologies, including AI, fintech, defense tech, Web3, cannabis tech, consumer tech, and nanotechnology.On top of all this, I love working with founders and early stage execs to help them navigate the ups and downs of company-building.
Experience
Leaders Council
Jan 2018 — Present · Washington, DC, US
https://lsc.gov/about-lsc/leaders-councilLSC is a U.S. Senate-funded 501(c)3, and the single largest grantor of civil legal aid for low-income Americans in the nation. LSC is headed by a bipartisan board of directors whose 11 members are appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate.I serve on the Leaders Council with a small but mighty group of business, civic, sports, and education leaders across the country who raise public awareness on the devastating role that seemingly minor legal problems play in a person’s cycle of poverty, the critical need for civil legal aid, and the importance of providing equal access to our justice system to low-income Americans.
