There is a burgeoning entrepreneurial ecosystem thriving in the Daytona Beach region…with gatherings such as 1 Million Cups as well as incubators such as Volusia County’s UCF Business Incubator at Daytona Beach International Airport and Embry-Riddle’s John Mica Engineering and Aerospace Innovation Complex, better known as the MicaPlex. But innovation isn’t limited to technology or entrepreneurs...pitch competitions and resources evolve as well.

In this episode of Crest of the Wave, we’ll talk with Volusia County Economic Development Director Lou Paris about the new Volusia Innovation Challenge, where the pitch competition gets its roots, as well as other resources supporting business and innovation throughout the region.
