Resources and Tips for Researching Prospects in the Greater China Region

International prospect research is a growing area of interest for many North American non-profit organizations. Having been a prospect researcher at two West coast post-secondary institutions with large numbers of alumni and friends across the Pacific, I often compile profiles and assess major giving capacity for constituents in East Asia. In this presentation, I will offer some contextual language and cultural information to facilitate prospect research into constituents in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, as well as Chinese diaspora in Southeast Asian countries. I will also share a large categorized list of online resources with which to conduct the research.
