Gold House

✨ Celebrating 6 Years of Gold Impact with Vanity Fair! ✨ From a team of volunteers to an industry-defining force, Gold House has spent six years forging cultural excellence and socioeconomic progress for the Asian Pacific community. Here’s how we’ve made an impact together: 🎬 In Narrative Change: we’ve deployed industry-leading research, consulting, investments, and promotion on 400+ major media projects, including Everything Everywhere All At Once (the most-awarded film in history!), to ensure affirming mainstream portrayals. Our Creative Equity Fund has invested in 15 films and 2 animation studios, including the award-winning Dìdi (弟弟), to greenlight more authentic stories. We’ve now expanded our expertise into journalism, advertising, gaming, and food. Through our partnership with OpenTable, we launched the Gold Chef Prize, and brought South Indian flavors to the Prabal Gurung creative-directed Gold Gala with a menu curated by Culinary Directors Padma Lakshmi and Michelin-starred chef Vijay Kumar of Semma and Unapologetic Foods. 💰 In Economic Empowerment: With Gold House Ventures, we’ve invested in 78 companies, our startup accelerator alumni have raised $2 billion, and we’re proud to power the largest top Asian Pacific founder network in North America. With Gold Bridge, we’re connecting Asia and North America for investment and collaboration. Anchored by Gold Prix during Singapore F1 week in partnership with the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), we gather 200+ founders and creators to explore Southeast Asia’s market, which is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2030. And on the success of our first fund and global reach, we’re now raising Gold House Ventures II. 🤝 In One House: Partnering with leaders like the Sundance Institute, East West Bank Foundation, and leading multicultural organizations, we have advanced collaboration and capital for diverse filmmakers – with collective convenings during mainstream awards and a first-of-its-kind One House Filmmakers Fund – and reshaped corporate power by securing more than 60 publicly-traded and privately-held Board Director positions. As our full-time Team, Fellows, volunteers, Membership, and network grow, Gold House’s work will continue to power tomorrow for all. Learn more about how we can collaborate and how you can join the movement at goldhouse.org.  We're not waiting for a seat at someone else’s table; we’re building our own house. 🔗: goldhouse.org/vanityfair Photography: Huy Doan | Editing: @p_t_gibson

This week's Renegade, Andrew Ahn, is no stranger to adaptation: his 2022 film "Fire Island" was inspired by Jane Austen's "Pride & Prejudice". Yet, he faces a new undertaking: reimagining Ang Lee's 1993 rom-com #TheWeddingBanquet for a new audience. Through his growing filmography, the Korean American filmmaker continues to explore themes of queerness and familial responsibility, all the while spotlighting Asian Americans as complex protagonists. Our #Renegades series spotlights Asian Pacific leaders and creatives who are carving their own paths and defying stereotypes along the way. Read our full interview with Andrew down below!

The Rose is headed to @Tribeca! 🥳 Gold House is excited to share that THE ROSE: COME BACK TO ME will have its world premiere at Tribeca Festival! @TheRoseDoc is one of Gold House's investments via the Creative Equity Fund which is designed to accelerate promising creative projects and companies. The Rose built a millions-strong global fanbase as a breakout Korean indie rock band with roots in the K-Pop system. After a turbulent three-year hiatus, The Rose returns with an electrifying tour—and on their terms. The documentary, an intimate view of the band's journey and audacious bid for redemption and independence, premieres at this year's Tribeca Festival.
