"Not a policy commentator. A practitioner. Seventeen years advising on the deals, audits, filings, and family transitions that actually play out between the United States and Asia — most of them confidential, all of them ending in someone's wire transfer, board vote, audit response, or visa stamp."

Brian B. Su
Founder & President, Artisan Business Group
U.S. Citizen · Springfield, Illinois
Brian B. Su is the Founder and President of Artisan Business Group, Inc., a boutique cross-border advisory firm specializing in U.S.–Asia strategy, geopolitical risk, and regulatory intelligence. He serves as Independent Director and Chairman of the Compensation Committee at a Nasdaq-listed company.
A U.S. citizen since 1998 with more than 36 years of U.S. residency, Brian brings deep cross-cultural fluency built through decades of hands-on advisory work across Greater China, Southeast Asia, and North America. He advises family offices, institutional investors, corporate boards, and government-related stakeholders on navigating political and regulatory uncertainty, protecting cross-border capital, and identifying strategic growth opportunities.
He speaks at conferences, private briefings, and executive workshops across the United States and internationally — in English and Mandarin Chinese.
What sets Brian apart is the vantage point. He works from Springfield, Illinois — not New York, not Washington, not Shanghai — which means he advises companies the way they actually operate: mid-market, multi-jurisdictional, allergic to consultant-speak, and far more interested in what to do Monday morning than in another panel on great-power competition. Clients describe his style as candid, specific, and culturally bilingual in ways that translate directly to better decisions.
