Thank you to Plantronics for renewing their partnership with us!
I love uncovering behind-the-scene connections in our tech ecosystem. In Match Made in Santa Cruz, find out how two local startups with seemingly unrelated products collaborated on a win-win solution. Learn how the recent, untimely death of Bennett Roesch is inspiring the launch of a new movement. A startup launched a few years ago by two locals when they were in high school is preparing to ship their new gloving product. Oh, and check out the national news that Amazon is "growing a mysterious office in a small surf town near San Francisco."
In case you've been missing out, upcoming events are listed below the news section, and there's more on our events page. If you or someone you know is job hunting, check out our very popular jobs page.
As usual, there's more. Scroll down and start reading.
