LAVA COVID-19 Response  

We hope everyone in the LAVA community is staying as safe and as healthy as possible.  Please note, in light of the virus' impact, we've pushed two of our main summer events to September: 

  • First Look SoCal moves from June 3rd to Sept 15th at the Westin Pasadena, 191 N. Robles Ave., Pasadena 
  • The Corporate Innovation and Venture Forum moves from May 13th to Sept 30th hosted by Nixon Peabody in DTLA at 300 South Grand #4100, Los Angeles
