Charles Huang is the co-founder and CEO of Green Throttle Games, a video game development and publishing startup focused on creating new interactive entertainment experiences in the post-console era. His vision harnesses the power of mobile devices as a key driver of gaming on the move and in the living room, one that replaces the need for dedicated consoles through a combination of software, hardware and TV connectivity.

Huang is best known as the co-founder of RedOctane and co-creator of Guitar Hero, the fastest video game to reach $1B in sales when it debuted in 2005 and the best-selling video game in the world in 2007 and 2008. In 2006, Huang, along with his brother Kai, was elected as one of the top 50 producers in New Media by the Producers Guild of American New Media Council membership which includes such famed movie directors as Jerry Bruckheimer and Brian Grazer. He currently serves as an advisor to Basis, Infinite Z, Secret Builders, and Noise Toys, among others.

Huang immigrated to California as a young child and currently resides in Silicon Valley with his wife and two daughters. He holds Bachelor degrees in Economics and Asian Studies from the University of California, Berkeley, where he also founded the Huang Scholars Program providing students with enhanced and intensive Chinese language instruction.
