2018 Outstanding 50 Asian Americans in Business Awards Honors Copacino+Fujikado’s Betti Fujikado

SEATTLE, June 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Creative agency Copacino+Fujikado announced today that the Asian American Business Development Center has recognized Betti Fujikado, the agency’s CEO and Co-Founder, as part of its 2018 Outstanding 50 Asian Americans in Business Awards. 

Betti has more than 30 years of business experience in both privately held and public companies, having worked in positions ranging from CFO to COO to CEO. The granddaughter of Japanese immigrants and daughter of parents incarcerated during World War II at Camp Minidoka, Idaho, she serves as a strong voice for diversity in the Seattle advertising community by spearheading efforts to attract women in leadership positions and people of color into a traditionally white, male-driven industry.  As an alumna of PwC, Betti brings a singular ability to combine sound business strategy with unbridled creativity for each of the Copacino+Fujikado’s diverse clients.

Since Betti co-founded it more than 20 years ago, Copacino+Fujikado has evolved into a well-known leader in the advertising space. The agency has been recognized for its outstanding work for clients including The Seattle Mariners, Holland America Line, Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, REI, and The Seattle Aquarium.

“I’m thrilled to receive this honor, and it is with gratitude to the fantastic C+F team, my co-founder Jim Copacino, our incredible clients, and my always supportive family,” said Betti.  “I truly appreciate to be recognized by an organization that understands my personal experiences as an Asian American woman in business.”

Betti will be honored at the 17th annual Outstanding 50 Asian Americans in Business Awards Dinner Gala tonight at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City. As in past years, the ceremony will celebrate a wide array of Asian ethnicities that represent a microcosm of elite Asian American business owners, professionals, and corporate executives across the United States.
