The Convergence Zone: Where Entrepreneurs & Opportunity Meet

Micaplex LogoThe MicaPlex, the cornerstone building of the Research Park at Embry-Riddle in Daytona Beach, Florida presents a unique collaborative opportunity for business and the university community to develop, refine and bring new products and technological services to market.

Start-up companies have a tremendous advantage when there is a network of support to shepherd them through the stages of product/service development toward market readiness.

As an incubator space, the facilities and occupants of the MicaPlex will provide such a network which extends to the University, not only  at the Daytona Beach Campus, but to resources on the Prescott, Arizona, campus and the extensive network that is the Worldwide Campus.
