Synapse Florida

Check out the latest Synapse news and highlights of the innovation ecosystem! #InnovationLivesHere

Synapse - Innovation Lives Here Since day one, Synapse has been a cornerstone of innovation, entrepreneurship, and business excellence in Florida. Our mantra, "Innovation Lives Here," has evolved from a bold vision into a thriving reality, built on dedication and collaborative effort. We've been a catalyst, helping to transform Florida into a hub of opportunity and progress by fostering connections across industries and communities. Synapse has sparked countless collaborations that have propelled economic growth and innovation. Since 2017 we have hosted over two dozen major innovation conferences, dozens of in-person gatherings and online seminars, and made hundreds of direct introductions helping partners find what they need and share what they’ve created.  Synapse has reached more than 40,000 innovators representing different ages, stages, and experiences.   The “ROI” - the return on inspiration, information, innovation - is infinite! And we’re not stopping there.  Just like every innovator does, we’re reimagining what’s possible to ensure that innovation continues to not only live in Florida but to thrive here.  As our community is evolving, our synapses are firing with new ideas to strengthen and serve the ecosystem.  We're guided by our core values: prioritizing our community, being agile and accountable, keeping it fun and thought-provoking. We’ll be sharing more in the coming weeks as we engage with you and stakeholders and ecosystem partners; we invite you to join us on this journey. Thank you for being part of the reason that “Innovation Lives Here!” #InnovationLivesHere

No better way to start the week than when two entrepreneurs stop by to share how Synapse was a catalyst to help them push their business to the next level. What did they do? ✅ The team at Kitchenery launched their latest product demo at Synapse Summit 2024, following up on their initial demo last year; ⚙ Leveraged their participation to secure a manufacturing contract; 💵 Closed a significant venture investor who now sits on their advisory board, and are in talks to close another investor, both of whom they engaged at Synapse Summit; 🤝 Expanded their outreach to B2B customers, which helped them to secure a contract. Kudos to Akshay Bhuva and ANDREW COLLIER for showing up and making the most of every opportunity, and to the supportive team at the The University of Tampa Lowth Entrepreneurship Center, Rebecca J. White, PhD and JOSH R. for mentoring talented entrepreneurs. #InnovationLivesHere #Florida #InternetofThings
