It was a pleasure to host an ACG San Francisco roundtable on geopolitical impacts and investment strategies across Asia, with a focus on Singapore. LouAnn Conner moderated the panel and highlighted Singapore’s strong international trade links, cultural diversity, and ease of doing business. Marsha Vande Berg emphasized Singapore’s resilience amidst geopolitical tensions, citing its stable government, low corporate taxes, and robust infrastructure. Chris Shen highlighted the influx of capital from mainland China and Singapore’s growing regional significance. David Stepat (dialed in from Singapore) shared valuable insights into the regulatory landscape, touching on KYC requirements. Appreciate Robert Half for sponsoring at the SF office!

Yesterday marked our 3rd quarterly event for the year with Association for Corporate Growth (ACG) x ACG San Francisco Young Professionals 40 Under 40 Pod thanks to our gracious host J. Dylan Malot and Bernstein Private Wealth Management. Regularly referred to as the best view in the city, and BPWM did not disappoint! Thank you for a truly unique view and experience for all. This was the first members only event of the year for our pod (Whereas the past events were open to all) and the turnout was nothing short of spectacular. We even brought on sone new members who now proudly represent their organizations within #ACG. Looking forward to our next event which will most likely be in early December to round out the first full year of co-chairing the group with Jacob Strom, CFA. If anyone would like to host us, or support our next meet we absolutely appreciate any and all recommendations or hosting offers. We can't forget to mention ACG UNIVERSITY which is currently accepting applications for the upcoming classes which I'll be attending as well. What an amazingly supportive group which has continued to grow and flourish before our very eyes since the re-launch. Thank you all to each and every one of you who made this a special night! We can't wait to see you all again soon! #Insperity #PrudentialPrivateCapital #Dealmakers #MidMarket #Enterprise #ACGSFYOPRO
