4 months agoFrom a team of volunteers to an industry-defining force in just 6 years, Gold House forged cultural excellence and socioeconomic progress for the Asian Pacific community. Here’s how we’ve made an impact together:
🎬 Narrative Change: We deployed industry-leading research, consulting, investments, and promotion on 400+ major projects, including Everything Everywhere All At Once (the most-awarded film in history!), to ensure affirming mainstream portrayals. Our Creative Equity Fund invested in 15 films and 2 animation studios, including the award-winning Dìdi (弟弟), to greenlight more authentic stories. We’ve now expanded our expertise into journalism, advertising, gaming, and food. With OpenTable, we launched the Gold Chef Prize, and brought South Indian flavors to the Prabal Gurung creative-directed Gold Gala with a menu curated by Culinary Directors Padma Lakshmi and Michelin-starred chef Vijay Kumar.
💰Economic Empowerment: Through Gold House Ventures, we invested in 78 companies, our startup accelerator alumni have raised $2 billion, and we power the largest top Asian Pacific founder network in North America. With Gold Bridge, we’re connecting Asia and North America for investment and collaboration. Anchored by Gold Prix during Singapore F1 week with the Singapore EDB, we gather 200+ founders and creators to explore Southeast Asia’s market, which is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2030. And on the success of our first fund and global reach, we’re now raising Gold House Ventures II.
🤝One House: Partnering with leaders like the Sundance Institute, East West Bank Foundation, and leading multicultural organizations, we have advanced collaboration and capital for diverse filmmakers – with collective convenings and our One House Filmmakers Fund – and reshaped corporate power by securing more than 60 publicly-traded and privately-held Board Director positions.
As our family grows, Gold House’s work will continue to power tomorrow for all. Learn about how you can join us at goldhouse.org.
We’re not waiting for a seat at someone else’s table; we’re building our own house.
