Howard Brown is an author, Silicon Valley entrepreneur, interfaith peacemaker, two-time stage IV
cancer survivor and healthcare advocate. For more than three decades, Howard’s business innovations, leadership principles, mentoring and his resilience in beating cancer against long odds have made him a sought-after speaker and consultant for businesses, nonprofits, congregations, and community groups.

In his business career, Howard was a pioneer in helping to launch a series of technology startups before he co-founded two social networks that were the first to connect religious communities around the world. He served his alma matter — Babson College, ranked by US News as the nation’s top college for entrepreneurship— as a trustee and president of Babson’s worldwide alumni network.

His hard-earned wisdom about resilience after beating cancer twice has led him to become a nationally known patient advocate and “cancer whisperer” to many families.
