Graziadio Business School Hosts Fourth Annual Most Fundable Companies Showcase Presented by the Singleton Foundation


On October 14, 2021, the Graziadio Business School hosted the fourth annual Most Fundable Companies Showcase presented by the Singleton Foundation for Financial Literacy and Entrepreneurship and powered by the Venture Alliance. The event recognized 16 companies out of 3,300 applicants across the nation for their innovation and promising futures.

“The Most Fundable Companies event recognizes promising companies who have gone through rigorous financial vetting and scrutiny from world-renowned experts,” said Deryck J. van Rensburg, dean of the Pepperdine Graziadio Business School. “This list of companies should be on the radar for funders who are looking for what's new and what's next.”

Among the 16 startup recognitions, FLX Solutions, Inc., Gales, Inc., and PB Analytics, Inc. (d/b/a Rixon Technology) all received a Platinum designation, the highest recognition attainable. The Most Fundable Companies are evaluated on several company variables including financial projections, market opportunity, intellectual property, competitive advantage in their market, and the strength of the management team expertise. Each of these variables is then used to generate objective and customized feedback and scoring to improve readiness for funding.

Along with the unveiling of this year’s winners, the showcase featured a keynote discussion led by Jamie Siminoff, the founder and chief inventor of Ring. Siminoff was joined by an impressive lineup of speakers including Cary Singleton and Landon Phillips from the Singleton Foundation, G. Louis Graziadio III from the George and Reva Graziadio Foundation, Vince Monteparte from Sway Ventures, James Casparie from the Venture Alliance, and Guy Baker from Wealth Teams Alliance and BTA Advisory Group.
