CATALYST
A CELEBRATION OF INSPIRATION
It is a potent force, no less powerful than gravity, friction, or magnetism — and critically important to science and human progress. It is the ultimate catalyst.
Commemorate the inspiring life of John Glenn.
Astronaut and Senator John Glenn’s life included countless contributions to science and public service. He represents the potential in each of us to bring forth the best of humanity, working toward what is honorable, right, and possible.
Honoring Kirt Walker, CEO of Nationwide
Catalyst includes the presentation of the annual John Glenn Inspiration Award recognizing an individual who has dedicated their life to inspiring others for the benefit of humankind.
