AltaSea at Port of L.A. Celebrates Giving Tuesday

AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles will present a Dec. 1 webinar on the role that incubators such as AltaSea play on ocean economy and sustainability.

Featured guests include Giving Pledge philanthropist Melanie Lundquist, Los Angeles City Councilmember and President Pro Tempore of the Los Angeles City Council Joe Buscaino.

“Having AltaSea in my district is important not only as an economic driver in our local community, but also the entire Southern California region,” said Buscaino. “California has been the birthplace of innovation from the entertainment industry to Silicon Valley, and I am proud that my council district is the home of ocean innovation and the emerging blue economy.”

AltaSea’s CEO Tim McOsker, Founding Executive Director Jenny Krusoe, and Manager of Advancement Robin Aube will also be featured.

“Having Melanie Lundquist and Councilmember Buscaino on our side is an honor, and their contributions are a huge reason that AltaSea continues to exponentially grow,” said McOsker. “Their generosity helps push AltaSea further into the national spotlight as a leader in the fight for a cleaner ocean and a bluer economy.”

The webinar will take place at 10 a.m. PST on Dec. 1. Space is limited so pre-registration is required. Visit AltaSea-Project-Blue.org/webinars/ to sign up.
