Created by the Florida State Legislature in 1996, the Florida High Tech Corridor Council has focused on one mission: to attract, retain, and grow high tech industry in the 21-county region of the Corridor. This is accomplished through university research initiatives; the creation of workforce development projects; and joint marketing of the region with economic development, community college and industry partners. In any given year, the Council funds dozens of research projects, and an even greater number of workforce, marketing, and industry initiatives.

The Virtual Entrepreneur Center is a web portal designed to provide a robust and easy-to-use resource for local entrepreneurs to find information and services to support their new or growing business. Developed in partnership with the Florida High Tech Corridor Council, the Virtual Entrepreneur Center provides useful links to service providers, local governments, and other agencies to support starting up your business, expanding your business, or relocating business to central Florida!
