H4A Hosts First-Ever West Coast Summit

H4A held its first-ever West Coast Summit in San Francisco on October 10-11, 2025, bringing together more than 150 Asian and Asian American alumni for a weekend of connection, learning, and inspiration.

Featuring panels, fireside chats, lightning talks, breakout sessions, an UnConference, stand-up comedy, and even a ukulele solo, the Summit marked an exciting milestone in expanding H4A’s global community.
