Just inland of the offshore rock formations, sandstone cliffs and tide pools of Natural Bridges State Beach, the westside of Santa Cruz is transforming from its quiet past into a bioscience hub of innovation.

Startup Sandbox plays a vital role in the rise of the westside as a center of research and progress. The Sandbox’s role is as a bioscience incubator where UCSC researchers and scientists refine, test and commercialize their ideas into successful companies. In the second half of 2019, the Sandbox graduated six companies that are now independently operating on their own.

In the middle of all the action, the Startup Sandbox is located on Natural Bridges Drive, across the street from the Genomics Institute and UCSC’s Westside Research Park.

For a deeper look at the biotech breakthroughs and projects happening on the westside of Santa Cruz, see this story by James McGirk at the UC Santa Cruz Newscenter.
