Join us on the evening of June 16, where the 2022 East Bay Innovation Awards finalists will be announced! In preparation for the 10th annual East Bay Innovation Awards on August 4, East Bay EDA will be hosting an inaugural East Bay Block Party event at the Bridge Yard in Oakland. Presented by Kaiser Permanente, this one-of-a-kind celebration will include food, music, and everything the East Bay has to offer. In honor of our anniversary, we will highlight past awardees, alumni and look to the future of innovation across our region at this fun-filled event. Please stay tuned for special announcements. Tony! Toni! Toné! Oakland and Bay Area R&B legends Tony! Toni! Toné! have just been announced as the featured performer for the East Bay Innovation Awards Block Party. From fun, upbeat, smash hits like Feels Good, to blues-leaning classics like The Blues to their signature love ballads like Anniversary, the sound of Tony! Toni! Toné! is soulful, organic, classic, and instantly recognizable. Their ability to create songs that perfectly married the stylings of the soul and funk gods of the 70's with the technology and hip-hop infused R&B of the 90s made them icons of their generation. Join the Tony's in celebrating the East Bay in style! The Bridge Yard Once a maintenance facility for the Bay Area’s ubiquitous street cars, the Bridge Yard is Oakland’s newest event space.
