Orange County Soccer Club is Orange County’s only professional soccer team. Orange County SC is a part of the United Soccer League (USL), the fastest-growing Division II professional soccer league in the world comprised of 34+ teams across the United States. The team plays their home games at the Orange County Great Park’s Championship Soccer Stadium located in Irvine, CA. Nestled right in the heart of the Great Park, the Championship Soccer Stadium has a capacity of over 5,000 for Orange County SC matches. Orange County SC was one of 12 founding members of the USL during its inaugural 2011 season. The predecessor club, Orange County Blues, were the 2015 Western Conference Regular Season Champions and reached the Western Conference Semi-Finals of the USL Playoffs in back-to-back seasons. Team owner and Chief Investment Officer of LARO Properties, James Keston, purchased and rebranded the team in 2017. Keston actively oversees all operations of the team and is dedicated to providing a pathway to professional soccer and a world-class soccer organization that focuses on the fans, players, and youth clubs of Orange County. The club completed the 2018 season in record-breaking fashion. The side set club records in wins, points, and attendance culminating in a Western Conference Regular Season top seed advancing through to the Western Conference Championship game.

Our club was formed with a clear vision and belief of football being owned by the fans; of football clubs as community assets that improve the lives of those who support them. Not only are we creating a global ownership community, we are also giving fans a voice. We are creating a true football democracy where every owner has an equal voice and an equal vote.

Jetoptera is a propulsion system, drone, and aerial mobility startup with the vision to create a world where aerial mobility is commonplace. To that end, we have developed a unique Fluidic Propulsive SystemTM integrated with a novel airframe. This has many advantages over other approaches: faster, simpler, quieter, more compact, and lower cost. Our propulsion system is distributed and lends itself naturally to our mission, to create vertical and short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft of unmatched speed, range, payload, and efficiency to transport cargo and people.

We present the world’s first non-metal sustainable battery. Most cost-effective, safe, with zero environmental impact, and made from renewable raw materials. We aim for the complete transition of humanity to renewable energy sources through the creation, implementation, and global expansion of sustainable batteries in the energy storage market
