began to look at the gaps in the small business entrepreneurial eco systems, among
those having an affordable workspace, consistent mentorship, business education and
access to capital. The name 1909 represents the founding date of Palm Beach County.
The program would serve the 39 municipalities by uniting technological, entrepreneurial,

community partners. We hope this program can build businesses within the City of
