Come celebrate AAPI heritage, entrepreneurship, and mental health at Rooted & Rising!
Welcome to Rooted & Rising: AAPI Heritage, Entrepreneurship, & Mental Health! Join us for an engaging event at the INSEAD San Francisco Hub for Business Innovation.
At the intersection of entrepreneurship, mental health, and community empowerment as we honor Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, Mental Health Awareness Month, and National Small Business Month.
This event brings together a dynamic group of AAPI leaders, entrepreneurs, mental health professionals, and community advocates to share their journeys, challenges, and solutions for thriving in business while prioritizing mental health. Through candid conversations, networking, and resource sharing, we aim to spotlight the importance of wellness in the entrepreneurial space and build solidarity within our community. We will also feature five local AAPI-owned small businesses, offering attendees a chance to support, shop, and connect with inspiring vendors who are making an impact in our neighborhoods.
This event is presented by ASIAN, Inc., Asian Leaders Alliance, INSEAD San Francisco, and Asian Hustle Network.
