Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPI Heritage Month) is an annual celebration in May that spotlights the historical and cultural contributions made by the people of this region. The AAPI umbrella term encompasses cultures from the entire Asian continent, inclusive of East, Southeast, and South Asia, and the Pacific Islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia.
The theme for Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month 2024 is “Advancing Leaders Through Innovation,” which recognizes the visionaries and trailblazers who have made significant and varied contributions to the nation through their ingenuity and creativity, despite facing significant cultural and systemic barriers.
IEI’s core values are Integrity, Excellence, and Ingenuity, so we appreciate, understand, and share the ideals of the AAPI 2024 theme. We recognize a variety of heritage months, including this one, throughout the year to celebrate the richness of cultures that are represented in our diverse firm.
