Zahava Stroud

Zahava Stroud graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in Sociology, and UC Davis Law School in 1985, joining the California bar in 1985. She practiced law in Los Angeles as a trial lawyer and business litigator for 18 years before founding iHollywood Forum. iHollywood Forum has thousands of members, supporters, and attendees from across the globe. We host mixers, breakfasts, conferences, and workshops that have attracted thousands of attendees and connected entrepreneurs, investors, and established companies. Many of the startups who attend the events have secured funding from people they met, found jobs or employees, or became acquired.

In 2008, we decided to expand the scope of connected entrepreneurs and investors to markets other than Hollywood, content and digital media. We launched an exciting new series for executive discussion and deal-making for all types of entrepreneurs in different vertical markets. Their attendees are thought leaders and executives who include entrepreneurs, investors, and corporate employees who crave intellectual and thoughtful conversation in an elegant setting that leads to business deals.
