Despite a nearly 60% increase in Fortune 1000 board seats held by Asians from 2020 to 2023, more API leaders stepping into government roles, and broader Asian representation across all industries (including sports), we're still fighting to be truly seen. A big thank you to our board member Michelle Tang for spotlighting this issue in ADWEEK and reminding us that we belong in the front row. 🥇✨
VOICE | Not once were any of the Asian Pacific athletes featured during the entirety of the four-hour broadcast. "What will it take for the Asian Pacific community to be recognized for what we bring? Somehow, while we’re winning on the courts and mats of Olympic competition and in the corridors of Corporate America, our collective brand remains severely undervalued," writes Michelle Tang. https://adweek.it/3yOrMdd

🎉 And that's a wrap on our 2024 Convention! 🎉 We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. From allyship and women's leadership to mental health, we covered it all. We witnessed new connections blossom during our mentorship sessions between early and mid career attendees. We were blown away by the talent of the Las Vegas Taiko drum group, K-pop performances by student group V Sharp, and the incredible Ascend’s Got Talent contestants. We also recorded our first-ever live podcast with award-winning journalist Helen Zia and author Jeff Yang. And to top it all off, we had a special announcement from a certain famous mouse 🐭.
