In this episode of AAPI Ambition, I’m joined by global investor and serial entrepreneur Han Ko, CEO of USAKO Group, who brings more than 30 years of experience in international tech investment, business growth strategy, and commercial real estate.
Han shares how his career has spanned continents—from launching ventures across the U.S. and Asia to leading multi-million dollar investment initiatives in AI, visual imaging, ESG, and blockchain solutions. Recently, Han and his firm secured over $10 million in tech investments, with projects recognized by both the South Korean government and U.S. markets.
We talk about:
What it takes to scale companies in emerging tech sectors
How his AAPI heritage and immigrant journey shape his leadership
The future of AI, ESG, and tech entrepreneurship
How building global partnerships starts with local trust
Han’s story is not only about success—it’s about legacy, impact, and empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs through access to innovation and capital.
