Monday, June 10th, 2013YUE Publisher Chiu-Ti Jansen Named Trailblazer at Third Annual Top Ten Asian American Business Awards
Tuesday, April 30th, 2013(PRWEB) April 22, 2013
YUE Magazine, a preeminent Chinese-English lifestyle magazine founded by Chiu-Ti Jansen and Jared Kushners Observer Media Group, is pleased to announce that its Publisher Chiu-Ti Jansen will be receiving the Trailblazer Award from the U.S. Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce Northeast Chapter (USPAAC-NE) on April 24. The Third Annual Top Ten Asian American Business Awards ceremony will take place at the Auditorium of Morgan Stanley Worldwide Headquarters at 1585 Broadway in New York City.
The Top Ten Asian American Business Awards also known as the Business Oscars for the Asian American business community is the most prestigious Pan Asian American business award program in the Northeast Region. The award program honors Asian entrepreneurs with outstanding leadership, vision and accomplishments who have built a sustainable business and simultaneously support a business community. Winners of the program will also participate in the national Fast 50 Award program at USPAACC annual national event CelebrAsian on June 3-5, 2013 in California.
According to Chiu-Ti Jansen, Being a foreigner has been a defining experience in my life, so when I started my own business CHINA HAPPENINGS I wanted to make it part of my mission to explore, in depth, the creative energy that one draws from encountering another culture. Being an entrepreneur is not only about being ones own master, but also about living beyond our pre-conceived categorization of talents, professions and geographies. I want to be in a business that allows me to be artistic and business-minded, creative and analytical, Western and Chinese–all at the same time.
Reflecting on making up her new world, Chiu-Ti Jansen said, when I retired from a covetable partner position at a major Wall Street law firm in 2010, many thought it was the most challenging time to start a new business. I knew it would not be easy to give up the shield of a big corporate letterhead and establish new credentials from scratch. But I have never looked back since. Now I carve out my own roles and live by my own designs. I am a TV presenter, a publisher and a writer. I am also a business owner. I am involved with many charitable organizations and cultural institutions. Every day presents a new set of challenges and, along with it, a new set of opportunities. This Award is humbling–it reminds me that it is my privilege to lend voice to Asian Americans under-represented cultural and artistic accomplishments.
The Top Ten Asian Business Awards counts many Fortune 500 corporations including Morgan Stanley, Citibank, HSBC, Merck, UPS, and Time Warner as its sponsors. Chiu-Ti Jansen will be joining the ranks of past award winners Collabera, Netcom Learning, A & Z Pharmaceuticals as well as leading Asian non-profit organizations such as the AAARI. The Top Ten Asian Business Awards recognizes Asian-owned companies with the fastest revenue growth over the last three years.

Little did we know it was a jazz night at the restaurant! said the President. It added an interesting mix to our launch meeting to have a background jazz band however. With the smooth beats in the background, we learned about handling small businesses from Myriam.
Attendees nibbled on fresh brick oven pizza while listening to how to handle time in a world where people are constantly multitasking.
In her presentation Everything you Need to Know About Your Small Business, Myriam offered attendees a wealth of information, including providing small business resources such as Federal and New York State requirements for small businesses, Aleen said.
