Derrek Li is an Associate at Dynamo Ventures. Prior to Dynamo, Derrek began his career as a strategy consultant covering the technology sector before jumping into the world of startups.
Most recently, Derrek spent several years at Stripe, embedded within different GTM and product teams at various stages of maturity. Through a phase of hyperscale growth across Stripe, Derrek found that he was most passionate about the nascent, 0 to 1 product teams building toward product market fit and the earliest signs of traction with users.
Outside of startups, you can find Derrek cheering on his favorite teams (Lakers, A’s, and Eagles) or digging deep into the analysis of the storyline and strategy. He’s also picked up golfing and surfing, and finds each sport humbling both mentally and physically.
