The 9th Annual SEED20 was a huge success! Our transition to SEED20 OnLine due to the COVID-19 crisis featured many firsts. With the shift to an online platform, the audience had the opportunity to select all three winners from the comfort of their own homes and computers. The viewing and voting window was expanded to 48 hours to give our audience more flexibility to tune in to the show and cast their votes. Also new this year, Tim Miner joined Matt Olin as a co-host and the duo brought their creativity and collaborative spirit to our OnLine event. What was not new this year? The presenting finalists shared their stories of transformation, hope, and change with conviction, humor and passion.
