On Saturday, September 26, 2009, the Asian Professional Exchange (APEX) hosted its 16th Annual Awards Gala & Silent Auction at the Wilshire Grand Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. Themed "Reaching New Heights: Empowering the Community", the APEX Awards Gala recognized and honored prominent individuals and companies who are not only giving back but opening doors for more leaders to rise in the community. This year, APEX has selected Kollaboration to receive the APEX Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment. We are honored to receive such an award and thank APEX for recognizing what we do for the community.

All proceeds from the dinner go directly back into funding programs that are related to youth, mentorship and personal development. For more info go to: www.apex.org/awards.
