Mr. Li Lu was born in China in 1966. He attended Nanjing University in China from 1985 to 1989. From 1990 to 1996, he attended Columbia University and earned three degrees simultaneously: a B.A. in Economics from Columbia College, a J.D. from Columbia Law School, and an M.B.A. from Columbia Business School.
Upon graduation, Li Lu worked in an investment bank until late 1997, when he founded Himalaya Capital Management, which today manages funds that are focused on publicly traded securities, as well as venture capital funds, both on a global basis. He serves on the board of directors of a number of technology and high growth companies, as well as several not-for-profit organizations.
Li Lu is the author of the book Moving the Mountain: My Life in China, which recounts his experiences in China. Scenes from the book were subsequently included in a feature-length documentary film of the same title directed by Michael Apted.
Li Lu received John Jay Awards for distinguished professional achievement from Columbia University in 2012. He was named a Global Leader for Tomorrow by the World Economic Forum in 2001, and a Henry Crown Fellow by the Aspen Institute in 1998. He also received the Raoul Wallenberg Human Rights Award from the Congressional Human Rights Foundation and the Reebok Human Rights Award for his work of advocating for human rights.
He is a member of The Council on Foreign Relations, The Young Presidents Organization, Pacific Council for International Relations and Committee 100.
