Events that promote the precence of Chinese Culture
Mentor the next generations of Chinese on the topics of education, career development, women empowerment, and leadership
Build & create a local startup ecosystem that helps Chinese entrepreneurs make meaningful connections
“Apart from staying close to my Chinese community through entrepreneurship and culture performance events, I also enjoy educating my non-Chinese friends about the history behind major cultural festivals - such as the Chinese Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and Mid-autumn Festival, cuisine and wine originated from various regions of China, spiritual values such as the Hundred schools of thought, and so many more. As written on the website of Chinese American Heritage Foundation, the mission is to “Recognize, Appreciate, and Celebrate” the Chinese traditions and heritage. That has inspired me to be part of this legacy to establish a firmer presence of Chinese culture.”
