Yesterday, on June 13th, Suzanne Yoon and Ellen Havdala, two powerhouses in private equity and investment, shared their expertise and stories to a room of founder led companies and startups. Yoon spoke about her journey to launching Kinzie Capital Partners LP and the background that led her to loving companies that "make things." Both Yoon and Havdala reflected on a main theme of their success: relationships. They spoke about the value of networks, taking advantage of opportunities presented, and creating opportunities for others. Thank you Suzanne and Ellen for gracing the mHUB community with your insights, and thank you to presenting sponsor Grant Thornton (US) for helping make the evening possible. #mHUBindustrydisruptors #mHUBinnovation #entrepreneurs #startups #privateequity #manufacturing #founders #hardtech #physicalproductdevelopment #smallbusiness #economicdevelopment #investment

I am humbled and grateful to be receiving the Duc Huang Founder’s Award for Immigrant Success at the Chinese Mutual Aid Association (CMAA)’s Annual Gala this year! Growing up in an immigrant family, I experienced first hand the importance of social services and community for those establishing a new life in the United States. The CMAA's mission to serve families like mine is close to my heart, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my story in hopes of making a positive impact. I'd like to thank CMMA for this honor, and for all the incredible work they do to uplift immigrant and refugee communities in our city. Join in the celebration on April 11th, or consider supporting this amazing organization: https://lnkd.in/gTzYSrfY #voiceandvision #cmaa #immigrantsuccess
