Event Date: May 28, 2026 (11:30 AM)

Entrepreneurship has long been a catalyst for opportunity within Asian American communities-driving economic mobility, generational wealth, and cultural leadership. Cultural Voices 2026: Seeds of Impact brings together Asian American entrepreneurs, business leaders, funders, and community partners to explore how innovation, resilience, and identity shape lasting impact across Chicago.

Hosted by the Chinese American Service League (CASL)-the largest and most comprehensive Asian American social service organization in the Midwest-Cultural Voices honors AANHPI Heritage Month, elevates community voices, and highlights the strength, leadership, and contributions of the AANHPI community.

Why Cultural Voices Matters

Entrepreneurship continues to expand opportunity-fueling innovation, sustaining families, and strengthening neighborhoods. Seeds of Impact builds on that foundation by convening leaders committed to shaping what comes next. Cultural Voices creates space:

• For leaders to share real journeys and lessons learned
  
• For organizations to align with meaningful, community-centered economic impact
  
• For partners to invest in the next generation of builders and changemakers
