The first step is a Letter of Interest, due October 12, 2025 to @email.  From those, we will invite a subset to submit a full proposal in November 2026.  And from those, a subset will be invited to provide a “pitch” (think “Shark Tank”) to a panel of judges and an audience in February 2027.

We are very grateful to our generous donors who make this 7th annual event possible.
