Churchill Club proudly presents the 8th annual CHURCHILLS — a magical event that inspires us to aim higher and do more to advance innovation, leadership, collaboration, and social benefit.
Our esteemed speakers are nominated and voted to the top for their contributions to four areas of excellence by the Churchill Club Academy, a group of more than 700 innovation community members made up of industry leaders and professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, students, faculty, and journalists.
Honorable speakers for each distinction appear in the spirit of “giving back” — by sharing their perspectives and insights about what is needed to innovate, lead, collaborate, and contribute to the greater good.
Jonathan Becher, President of Sharks Sports & Entertainment, is our master of ceremonies for one extraordinary evening.
The distinctions are:
GLOBAL BENEFACTOR:
JENNIFER PAHLKA, CODE FOR AMERICA
