The startup journey isn't cookie-cutter, and the support founders and their teams receive shouldn't be either. Building a startup requires a continuous learning environment where a team is in close proximity to other builders who share a willingness to explore what is new and untested.
Embarc Collective helps Tampa Bay’s startup talent build bold, scalable, thriving companies. Our staff of executive advisors and function-specific experts deliver individualized support to startups inside of Embarc Collective’s state-of-the-art 32,000 square foot collaboration facility.
Embarc Collective takes no equity in the companies that it supports—instead, companies pay a highly subsidized monthly fee to access the support and space of Embarc Collective.
We are not a co-working space, accelerator or incubator. We are a new kind of support model, one where your company's experience at Embarc Collective is customized around your priorities to help your growth.
Founders meet with on-staff Embarc Collective Executive Advisors to work on their business.
When building a business, teams spend most of their time dealing with whatever fire drills emerge that day. We call this “working in the business.” When constantly battling these urgent tasks, it’s easy to lose sight of the team's progression towards its growth milestones.
Startup founders are paired with an on-staff Executive Advisor for regular strategy sessions to review the foundation and scalability of their business - what we call “working on the business.”
