Join the Economy League of Greater Philadelphia and Billy Penn to hear pitches from the Full City Challenge finalist teams. Teams will present their innovative ideas for leveraging Philadelphia's strong food economy to address pervasive hunger and poverty in the region. Celebrity judges including Nick Bayer, Kim Carter, Han Chaing, Bill Golderer, and Ellen Yin will select a Grand Prize Winner to receive $5,000 and technical assistance to pilot their idea, and audience members will help select a People's Choice Award Winner. And there will be plenty of time for networking and great food generously provided by Green Soul.
