What is it like to navigate the world of sports and investing? During AANHPI month, our ASPIRE employee resource group hosted former pro-golfer and angel investor Michelle Wie West for a conversation on navigating the world of sports as a woman, advocating for AANHPI representation, and empowering diverse voices in the business world. Michelle has forged her own path as an athlete: she became the youngest player to ever qualify for a USGA amateur championship at age 10, turned professional right before her 16th birthday, earned her degree at Stanford while competing on the LPGA tour, and competed for more than two decades. Now retired from the game, Michelle partners with PitchBook as her caddie off the course as she actively builds her portfolio, supporting brands she believes in and women and minority entrepreneurs. At PitchBook, our ASPIRE (Asian Pacific Islander Represent) ERG is committed to creating and embracing a welcoming, safe and supportive work environment for members and/or allies of the AANHPI community. Big thanks to our ASPIRE team members for organizing this inspiring event, and of course to Michelle for joining us to share a little about her journey!

π€ As a company, we have a long tradition of giving back.

We exceeded last year's team member participation and are so proud of the impact we made. Huge thanks to all our volunteers and to the organizations we worked with! #LifeAtPB
