Florida Gulf Coast University

Florida Gulf Coast University’s newest structure is a 27,000-square-foot, three-story paradise for the entrepreneurial minded. In addition to office space and classrooms, the privately funded facility includes the Incubator, with shared workspaces, private conference rooms for mentors to meet with students, computers, a camera and audio recording equipment, and product and app development software.

Aimed at helping students create products for their businesses, the Maker Space contains 3D printers, a laser cutter and virtual reality development kits. Lucas Hall will also feature a media lab incorporating total lighting and sound control, backdrops, props and cinema-quality audio-video equipment.
