The Chamber’s vision of San Luis Obispo as a nurturing environment for entrepreneurs is coming alive at Cal Poly. The opening ceremonies for the Cal Poly Tech Park will take place at 9 a.m. on Oct 26. Phase I of the Technology Park project encompasses a 25,000-square-foot building that was completed this summer. The first lease was signed in February with Applied Technologies Associates Inc. (ATA) for 3,000 square feet of space. ATA designs, builds and manufactures technology products for the oil industry. Currently 9,000 square feet of space is leased, with 11,000 square feet of space still available. Tomorrow at 5 p.m. the brand new Cal Poly Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship opens with a public event, The Cal Poly Entrepreneurship Forum - A Forum on Building Entrepreneurial Success at Cal Poly and on the Central Coast. The new center seeks to transform motivated students into resourceful, entrepreneurial and innovative leaders through classroom and hands-on experiences.
