What’s the best thing about living in Los Angeles?
The energy and diversity. Los Angeles is a global city that attracts macro-opportunities and is a massively powerful engine. The city has exceptional weather, professional sports teams, together with unique sporting events like the Los Angeles Marathon and the 2028 Summer Olympics, and offers world-class shopping and dining – all are enormous drivers and resources. At the same time, Los Angeles has the micro intrigue of being a city compromised of individual neighborhoods, creating a unique conglomeration of urban personalities. Overall, this is a city with enough raw inspirational power and resources to rise above most challenges and galvanize the entire community. Simply put, Los Angeles has championship DNA.
