Industry Engagement & Innovation Ecosystem
The Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CEI) at Cal Poly Pomona sincerely appreciates the continued support, collaboration, and engagement from students, faculty members, alumni, industry leaders, startup founders, investors, and ecosystem partners throughout Spring 2026. This semester represented an exciting period of growth and experiential learning as CEI actively connected the university community with leading conferences, innovation ecosystems, and emerging AI-driven industries across California and the United States.
Through participation in major conferences spanning artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, restaurant technology, retail innovation, venture capital, advanced manufacturing, real estate technology, consumer products, and global commerce, CEI continued building bridges between academia and industry. These engagements created valuable opportunities for experiential learning, networking, ecosystem immersion, and real-world exposure for the broader Cal Poly Pomona community.
Appreciation to the Community
CEI would like to extend heartfelt appreciation to all students, faculty members, Cal Poly Pomona alumni, industry executives, venture capital professionals, startup founders, and community partners who participated in and supported these initiatives. The enthusiasm, mentorship, collaboration, and shared commitment to innovation continue to strengthen CEI’s mission of preparing the next generation of entrepreneurial and AI-native leaders.
As AI, automation, and emerging technologies continue transforming industries worldwide, CEI remains committed to creating meaningful opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world innovation engagement. We sincerely hope that even more students, faculty members, CPP alumni, and industry partners will continue joining CEI in future conferences, ecosystem events, startup initiatives, and collaborative innovation programs.
