This panel will officially launch the guide and include key insights from entertainment and advertising leaders, as well as feedback on the state of the industry from API women and girls. A panel discussion moderated by Janice Min featuring Eva Chen, Padma Lakshmi, Geena Rocero, and Jeannine Shao Collins will illuminate the immense opportunity that lies in authentic representation. The conversation will emphasize the need to invest in API women in front of and behind the camera, so the industry can better portray API women and girls, who are so often underrepresented or stereotyped.
