Sonoma Speaker Series: In Conversation with ANDREW YANG

Andrew Yang is the cofounder of the Forward Party, a new, independent political movement dedicated to restoring the promise of American democracy. He was a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020 whose campaign outlasted over a dozen mainstream political officeholders and raised $40 million from hundreds of thousands of everyday Americans, dubbed “the Yang Gang.” He served as CEO of Manhattan Prep, growing the company until its acquisition in 2009.

Named by President Obama as a Presidential Ambassador of Global Entrepreneurship, he is the founder of Humanity Forward and Venture for America. He lives with his family in New York.

Andrew Yang will be interviewed by David McCuan, PhD, Chair of the Political Science Department at Sonoma State University.
