The Californer/10354953

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- Connect, the nonprofit organization supporting San Diego's innovation ecosystem for more than 40 years, today announced the launch of the new website for The Connect Current, the organization's podcast spotlighting the people and ideas shaping the region's future.

The site serves as a central home for every episode of The Connect Current, automatically updating as new conversations are released each week. Visitors can browse episodes chronologically, listen directly from the site, and explore the stories of the founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders building San Diego's innovation economy.

"The Connect Current was always meant to be more than a podcast feed," said James Zanewicz, CEO of Connect. "This site gives the show a real home, one that grows on its own as new episodes come out, so anyone curious about what is happening in San Diego's innovation ecosystem has a place to start."

The podcast was built and produced under Connect's Chief Brand and Engagement Officer, Tre Braquet, continuing the organization's effort to strengthen visibility across the ecosystem it has supported since its founding as one of the nation's first innovation accelerators.

Since launching in April 2026, The Connect Current has featured candid conversations with founders, investors, and community leaders across life sciences, technology, defense, AI, and emerging industries. Episodes remain concise and insight driven, typically running around 15 minutes, with new conversations released every Tuesday.

The new website reflects Connect's broader commitment to making the region's innovation story more visible and more accessible, both to the founders building inside it and to the partners and investors supporting it from outside. By pairing the podcast with a dedicated digital home, Connect aims to give the ecosystem a lasting, easy to find record of its own growth.
