One in a Billion Production Inc.
About
One in a Billion Productions is a Cambridge nonprofit media organization that uses personal storytelling to build understanding between Asians and Americans. At its heart is the One in a Billion podcast, a show about Asian culture and character told one person at a time. The organization also publishes personal blogs and video profiles and produces events, giving a platform to young, bold voices that are rarely seen or heard, especially emerging entrepreneurs and leaders.
The project traces back to a media start-up founded in New York in spring 2012, which later became the investment firm Mable Chan & Company. Its video profile series, “Dreams & Dreamers” and “Headliners & Heroes,” were distributed in China by Baidu’s iQIYI from 2013 to 2017 and earned top ratings from internet users there. In 2017 the podcast and media platform moved to the new nonprofit, registered in Massachusetts as a tax-exempt public charity and supported by donors.
