The Asian American Foundation and Forbes were honored to bring together trailblazing AAPI CEOs and C-suite executives for an empowering evening of conversation and connection to advance action on the most pressing issues faced by the AAPI community. Our objectives for the dinner were to convene AAPI corporate leaders and allies to address the longstanding lack of representation in AAPI leadership across sectors. We also wanted to cultivate and build network of AAPI CEOs and C-suite leaders and to build awareness on the most pressing issues facing AAPIs in the workforce - representation and belonging.

Our 130+ Giving Challenge partners are answering the call to reverse the long-standing underinvestment in our AAPI community.

On March 8, we brought together 170+ women AAPI leaders across all sectors at our inaugural International Women’s Day event in partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue.
