National Entrepreneur Center

About Us

**We are currently operating virtually, Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm

The NEC is dedicated to the development, growth & success of small businesses.

The roots of our business extend back to 2003, when Orange County Government, The University of Central Florida, and The Walt Disney Company collaborated to launch our unified approach to growing our small business economy. Since we began, our resident business support organizations have coached and trained Central Florida businesses in record numbers, while creating a nationally-recognized center for small business development.

In 2011, we relocated to the Orlando Fashion Square Mall and built our award-winning indoor miniature city, where entrepreneurs and small businesses receive support and services that enable them to develop into a strong business community.
