The InLab is the centralized hub for all things related to innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship, and social venturing offered at Hillsborough Community College (HCC). Through four program areas (Academics, Community Events and Workshops, Veterans entrepreneurial services offered through Operation Startup, and the Research Institute, which is a design thinking center of practice for the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship – NACCE), the InLab@HCC provides the community with a rich mixture of high impact advisory services, robust collection of innovative workshops, co-working space, subject matter expert entrepreneurs-in-residence, formal college credit entrepreneurship programs, business funding opportunities, design thinking services, academic research project initiatives, and an array of informal non-credit structured programs. We help early stage entrepreneurs take action on their business ideas through our three stage model of Educate, Fund, and Mentor.
