Closing the Funding Gap for Asians in Finance and Commercial Real Estate

In celebration of Asian Pacific Heritage Month, come join our panelists as we learn about their careers and backgrounds. We'll also talk about how much progress we have made and the opportunities ahead as well as advice to future generations.

According to a study conducted by Harvard Business School’s Professor Josh Lerner, AAPIs account for 5.6% of the total U.S. population, a share that is expected to grow faster than any other racial group in the coming decade. However, AAPIs own 0.2% of firms and manage less than 0.2% of Assets Under Management. We'll talk about why such a large funding gap for AAPIs exist in real estate and the inherent opportunities ahead.

The panelists include:

• Hanns Lee, Senior Managing Director at Hines

• Gloria Gil, Partner at Alpine Grove Partners

• Ginny Fang, CEO at G Street Ventures
