The Sunstone Economic Development Challenge @ USC Price is a charitable initiative aimed at empowering local governments to create and implement inclusive strategies to support and grow early-stage technology startups and high-tech jobs in their communities.
For the 2023-24 Challenge, teams of Price students, in collaboration with client cities, will develop forward-thinking and feasible strategies to attract and support startups, raise private capital, and create businesses and jobs. The 2023-24 client cities are the Cities of Culver City, Lomita, Pasadena, San Bernardino, and Torrance.
The teams’ pitches will be presented to a panel of judges at the USC City/County Management Fellowship (CMF) Summit & Sunstone Challenge Final Pitch on Thursday, April 11th from 9:00AM to 2:00PM where the winning team will receive $5,000.
