What is the difference between a Company ID and a 16-bit UUID?

A 16-bit UUID is used to advertise and interact with adopted services and characteristics that the Bluetooth SIG has adopted. A Company ID would be used in the Manufacturer Data field, which may be included in your Bluetooth advertising packet. If you are using this field in your packet, you will need to acquire a Company ID. Here is more information about the difference between the two. For more information, review this article: Requesting Assigned Numbers.
