The Rise of Asian-American Entrepreneurs | Global Conference 2024
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.
