Third Coast Foundry - Purdue University Open House
June 22, 2026 - 1:30 PM Pacific Time
Location: 625 2nd St., San Francisco
Time: 1:30 - 3:30 PM
The Purdue College of Science will participate in a Bay Area open house hosted in collaboration with Purdue Innovates at Third Coast Foundry, a new innovation hub in San Francisco connecting Purdue startups with West Coast capital and networks.
Third Coast Foundry is a dedicated space for partner university-founded startups and teams visiting the Bay Area. Designed to expand access to venture capital and strategic connections—without requiring relocation—it serves as a bridge between Midwest innovation and coastal investment communities. The space supports engagement through meetings, events, and ongoing programming with investors, alumni, and industry partners.
This informal, drop-in open house will introduce the Foundry to Purdue stakeholders in the Bay Area and provide an opportunity to engage directly with the university’s growing innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem.
