Operation Startup (OPSU) is a collaboration between Hillsborough Community College and Hillsborough County. OPSU is an innovation lab and co-working space providing early stage social entrepreneurs, HCC students, and the military Veteran start-up community (vetrepreneurs) with access to mentoring, educational programs, co-working, early stage business accelerator, events, and myriad networking opportunities.
It is a great place for our HCC students to go to work on their businesses and tap into additional workshops and resources available through our center. These services help mitigate factors that contribute to business failure, while increasing the likelihood of successful start-ups.
