/* Pavilion History */
In March of 2015, Disney announced that Innoventions West would be closed on April 30, and that the exhibits housed within the pavilion would be removed <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/innoventions/news/21mar2015-innoventions-west-to-close-in-april-along-with-vision-house-at-inventions-east.htm </ref>. This closure coincided with the end of the exhibitors' (Liberty Mutual, IBM and T. Rowe Price) sponsorship agreements <ref> http://www.orlandosentinel.com/travel/attractions/theme-park-rangers-blog/os-disney-epcot-innoventions-west-closing-20150320-post.html </ref>. On June 31, 2015 a rest and relaxation area called a D-Zone opened in Innoventions West <ref name= "wdwmagic"> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/epcot/news/26jun2015-new-d-zone-relaxation-area-coming-to-epcot-next-week.htm </ref>. Besides housing seating for guests and device chargers, a small snack and beverage stand also opened at this time <ref name= "wdwmagic"/>. In August 2016 Disney announced that The Sum of All Thrills and StormStruck would be closing on September 14, 2016 <ref> http://wdwnt.com/blog/2016/08/breaking-the-sum-of-all-thrills-and-stormstruck-closing-goodbye-innoventions-at-epcot/ </ref>. The closure of the two exhibits left Colortopia and Take a Nanooze Break as the only operating exhibits left in Innoventions.
