Mr. Ali’s key business opportunities have come in the healthcare, private equity, energy and, technology sectors. He formed a private equity firm with $250.00 and a few years later was loaning out millions of dollars. In energy, he assisted a company in increasing its revenue from $20 million per year to $75 million. Solomon served as an officer of a technology company that was in the development stage and went on to dominate its space through intellectual property assets and licensing.

Starting out in business and bootstrapping a company can be very difficult without the help from experts who have been there and done that.
