Location
Ritzs-Carlton Bacara

The Central Coast Innovation Awards recognize the emerging technology in Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties. This event, hosted by Pacific Coast Business Times in partnership with UCSB CNSI, celebrates the Central Coast as a distinct innovation hub and puts the spotlight on the region’s entrepreneurs. As an integral part of the Innovation Awards, Startup Village has historically provided a place for early-stage companies to make connections, initiate deals, and in some cases, make their first public appearance among a hometown group. This year, Startup Village showcases 24 startups from three sponsoring Universities – UC Santa Barbara, Cal Poly, and Cal Lutheran.

Startup Village will run 3:00PM - 4:30PM

Innovation Awards 4:30PM - 6:00PM
