Presented by USAmeriBank, each semester the HCC Entrepreneurship Program offers a speaker series called the “Startup Toolbox Speaker Series”. These events are designed to bridge our campus community with the business and entrepreneurship ecosystem in Tampa Bay. The events feature business and entrepreneurship leaders that visit our campus and participate in a panel discussion themed around myriad topics.
