Founder & Executive Director of Tomorow's Aeronautical Museum was selected as one of the 10 finalists that will make three-minute "pitches" to a panel of judges and an audience of more than 400 investors, business and nonprofit leaders, philanthropists, foundation executives and other influencers in Southern California's entrepreneurial community. The finalists will compete to win grants totaling up to $20,000.

Leaders from 20 nonprofits in Los Angeles were selected to participate in a 2-month program, based on their innovative approaches to creating social change and their potential for significant community impact. They received training, mentoring, and feedback on how to succinctly and powerfully "tell their story."

The "fast pitch" competiton & showcase event will also feature Dr. Peter Diamandis, Chairman and CEO of XPRIZE, as keynote speaker. Following the formal program, there will be a showcase reception where attendees can interact and network with the program participants to learn more about their mission, needs, and opportunities for support and engagement.
