About the East Bay Innovation Awards

The East Bay is a world-class leader when it comes to innovation and entrepreneurship. Often referred to as the “Academy Awards of the East Bay,” the East Bay Innovation Awards is the premiere program of its kind that celebrates and honors the extraordinary companies and organizations that contribute to the East Bay’s legacy of innovation and unique assets. For 10 years, the annual awards ceremony has showcased outstanding organizations that embrace innovation in their manufacturing, products, services, design, and information. We’re excited to welcome back Scott McGrew of NBC Bay Area as our event host as well as other special guests.
