In 2009, the BANANA conference was created to highlight and expand the online Asian Pacific Islander American (APIA) voice. The second annual conference invites thought-provoking and creative APIA bloggers to share their experiences, knowledge, endeavors, and visions with others - bloggers and non-bloggers, APIAs and non-APIAs alike. By bridging the unique personalities of the online AAPI community together, the intent is to create connections and create dialogues which extend beyond the conference - both online and offline.
