Howard joins the HiveWatch Board of Directors while currently serving as the Founder & CEO of Mile One Group, a strategic consulting firm specializing in technology business consulting, startup advisory services, and leadership development. For more than 20 years, Howard has worked with startups at all stages, from initial phases through go-to-market and scaling up, to successful exits.
