The Unity Conference is where Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) and all entrepreneurs from across the country come together to connect, grow, and celebrate.
This year marks 10 years of ACE NextGen, and we’re showing up bigger than ever:
Connecting and building real relationships
Learning from industry leaders and fellow founders
Exploring the culture, energy, and food of LA together
Program Schedule
More than just a conference, Unity is a movement - creating spaces to deepen bonds, uplift the next generation, and build momentum that lasts long after the weekend ends.
