One of the Business Times signature special reports recognizes Latino industry leaders in business, education, health care and nonprofits. The Pacific Coast Business Times scholarship award will be presented and a $1,000 check will be awarded to a Ventura County high school student.

Every year we present a $1,000 Pacific Coast Business Times scholarship award to a Ventura County student who is planning a career in business.

Selections will be made based upon the nominee’s record of success, dedication to community service and recognition earned from professional groups, chambers of commerce and community organizations. Our first round of judging may involve asking for more information about the nominee so please be sure to provide contact information in the nomination form. Previous winners are ineligible to be honored a second time.
