Every March for over a decade your Santa Cruz Area Chamber of Commerce has hosted an Annual Business Expo to showcase the diversity of member businesses in our region. The Santa Cruz Business Expo is Santa Cruz County's largest business event and premier opportunity to connect businesses, organizations, and the Santa Cruz County community face-to-face. The Expo's three-hour format at the historic Cocoanut Grove overlooking the Monterey Bay gives Santa Cruzans and visitors alike a chance to learn about the 100+ businesses and nonprofit organizations who introduce their products and services to the more than 1,500 attendees at this popular annual event! "The Annual Business Expo is the one of the best ways to gain exposure amongst the Santa Cruz business community. Success is about relationships and this event is a fantastic forum." - David Stearns, Allterra Solar This year’s Biz Expo theme is Mix It Up, where we encourage member companies to mix and mingle with other industries outside of their respective industry. We will blend our advocacy and communication work with our membership interest to listen and learn how a business to business connection improves the economic climate of Santa Cruz County. The value of any Expo is to market your company to the greater Santa Cruz community and at the same time enjoy the company of other like-minded business who see Santa Cruz County as the best place to work, live and play on the Central Coast. Many of our chamber members participate in this annual event because of these networking opportunities. “The business Expo is always a great experience. It’s an awesome way to keep our business name out there and the networking is always a plus!” – Katrina Ciapponi, Bogner Sheet Metal The industry clusters that participate run the gamut of Chamber members from banking and business consultants, to contractors and construction and trade, non-profits that serve our region, to our Santa Cruz Warriors and the educational community, health care organizations, and more. Our public agencies also participate to provide valuable information on city and county projects that improve our quality of life in the region. “The Business Expo is important to the Santa Cruz Warriors organization as a significant number of local and non-local businesses are centralized in one room and we have the opportunity to collaborate and share best practices with those leaders. We were fortunate to capitalize on new business the past couple of years — both with corporate partners and season ticket holders — and look forward to networking with more prospects this upcoming March.” – Mike Parr, Santa Cruz Warriors.
