Industry Collaboration

WAVE is actively collaborating on several fronts with Associations that support its members, and the private equity and venture capital industry to deliver expanded value.

The ACG NY Women of Leadership (WOL) Network was founded in 2008. While embracing and maintaining the principles and goals of ACG Global and the NY Chapter, WOL specifically focuses on facilitating connections between women leaders in the deal-making community so that they can share experiences, needs, contacts and overall, help one another succeed. WOL is dedicated to providing women leaders with programming that is actionable and applicable to their position within a predominately male organization and financial community.

The Association of Asian American Investment Managers
Founded in 2006, The Association of Asian American Investment Managers (AAAIM) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) in the field of investment management.
