The Road to the American Dream: Entrepreneurship and Innovation | Global Conference 2025
Rachel Goslins, Bing Chen, David Cohen, Shamina Singh, Anastasia Soare
At the Milken Center panel "The Road to the American Dream," entrepreneurs Bing Gordon, David Sze, Shamina, and Anastasia examined the fractured consensus on economic mobility while contrasting US entrepreneurial strengths with global barriers like credit access and the "missing middle." The speakers outlined strategies for inclusive growth, including Gold House's 50% capital allocation to women-led firms and Techstars' geographic decentralization, while debunking myths about Silicon Valley dominance and technical founding requirements. Despite facing headwinds such as high tariffs and rising costs, the panelists concluded that economic contractions currently offer unique opportunities for new entrants to leverage abundant talent and address unmet market needs.

Curtis Chin, Bing Chen, Payal Kadakia, Dave Lu, Smita Satiani, Shiza Shahid
A panel of prominent Asian American entrepreneurs and investors including Payal Chhabra, Shiza Shahid, and Dave Liu addressed the systemic leadership disparities and "scarcity mindset" limiting their community's economic and cultural growth. They detailed how Hyphen Capital, the Asian American Founder Circle, and emerging brands like Our Place are actively dismantling the model minority myth by increasing venture funding for women-led companies and authentic storytelling initiatives. The discussion concluded with a unified call to shift from zero-sum competition to a "everyone winning" philosophy that prioritizes intergenerational mentorship, philanthropic engagement, and the redefinition of success beyond traditional corporate metrics.
