Each summer, the National Association of Asian American Professionals (NAAAP) recognizes a group of Asian American leaders for their commitment and contributions to society. Since 2008, the prestigious NAAAP 100 award has been presented at NAAAP’s national convention, where leaders from all around the world gather. Past honorees have included David Lum of Motorola, former U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, Bill Imada of IW Group, actor John Cho, and architect I.M. Pei among others.

Things come full circle this year as the NAAAP convention finds itself in New York City, where the organization was founded 30 years ago.  Join NAAAP as we celebrate 30 great years, the release of ALIST‘s print issue, and the recipients of this year’s NAAAP 100 awards.
