Gold House is the home of collective power where leaders unite to forge culture for all. We’re the platform where global leaders share access, stories come to life, and businesses ignite—creating opportunities everywhere. We believe building culture requires more than ambition—it demands infrastructure for lasting change: we foster spaces where established and emerging makers gather to amplify their impact; we shape public perceptions by consulting on, investing in, and marketing society-defining media properties; and we create new economies by backing the boldest entrepreneurs and scaling them internationally.
By fueling unity, visibility, and economic mobility, success becomes our shared world. With roots in Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, and Singapore, Gold House operates with the heart of a nonprofit and the scale of a world-class enterprise. We don’t just change culture. We make it.
Gold House Ventures is the first venture fund that enables shared access across the venture ecosystem to the best Asian Pacific and multicultural founders. Our in-house accelerator, Gold Rush, is the nation’s leading Asian Pacific founder accelerator, providing education, mentorship, and community to carefully selected founder cohorts, with 100+ alumni and counting. Additionally, our Venture Network and Founder Network help us create the largest index of top API-led startups.
