Leech Tishman is pleased to share that Corporate Counsel Joy Xiao recently attended the Centennial Gala hosted by the China Institute of America, celebrating the organization’s 100th anniversary.
Founded in New York City in 1926 by a distinguished group of American educators and Chinese scholars, the China Institute of America has grown into one of the most prominent organizations for corporate and executive networking.
Xiao was invited to the gala by a business connection and attended alongside a group of distinguished guests at a table hosted by an Asian Canadian business leader who brought together a network of high-value professional connections. The evening commenced with speeches associated with private funds connected to prominent presidential families, including the Bush, Nixon, and Rockefeller families.
In recognition of her participation, Xiao became a member of the China Institute of America, gaining continued access to its executive-level network and programming.
