Bringing Together AAPI Leaders in Clean Energy
In Hawaiian, "Kuleana" refers to a sense of responsibility, privilege, and stewardship. By choosing this name, this weekend emphasizes the collective responsibility of AAPI leaders to not only advance the clean energy industry but also uplift each other in the industry. Our goal for this weekend is to create a platform for us to build community, exchange knowledge, and amplify our collective impact.
