Thursday December 10th was a momentous day for LACI Portfolio Company Pick My Solar.

COO Chris Blevins was in Philadelphia, pitching the company’s innovative Solar Book software in the DoE’s SunShot Catalyst Award, while at the same time CEO Max Aram was in Miami competing to win Techweek’s LAUNCH Grand Championship. Both came away winners in a day that netted the company $150K in prizes, capping a year in which Pick My Solar had already taken home the SBA’s Outstanding Small Business of the Year Award, as well as an earlier $50K win in Techweek’s LAUNCH LA competition.

LACI congratulates Pick My Solar on a fantastic 2015 and we can’t wait to see what 2016 has in store for them.

Any time industry leaders and stakeholders are brought together great strides can be made toward accomplishing mutual goals. The Los Angeles Better Buildings Challenge (LABBC) provided a platform to do just that during its Third Annual Building Technology Showcase, where leading technology companies gave fast-pitch presentations on the best energy and water solutions available in the marketplace to the LABBC’s network of property owners, property managers, and contractors.
