​At THAP’s 5508 Entrepreneurs Hub, we don’t have members.  We have "Business Collaborators". Because everyone here is actively contributing to building economic equity and shared success.  Our community of entrepreneurs is a collective of for profit entrepreneurs, nonprofit founders, community driven leaders and volunteers united in rising and thriving together in and for our community. 

Our 5508 Entrepreneurs Hub (EH) is the home of THAP's Business Incubator (BI) and Capital Readiness Accelerator (CRA) Programs.  We provide a daily, weekly, and monthly coworking space with table top workstations, seating areas, beverage stations, shared kitchen, private podcast or video recording room, cubicles, event space, training center, virtual business address and more.   

Our mission is to equip historically underrepresented entrepreneurs with tools needed for idea development, business implementation, independent operations, and expansion.  In our entrepreneur ecosystem, you are equipped with tools that simplify growth and give you the capability to clarify your vision, write your business plan, and reach your goals. Here, you’re not just building a business. You’re building financial independence in a community of Business Collaborators that sees you, believes in you, and grows with you.

​

We give you a safe space to breathe, and give you support that feels real. This is your community. This is your turning point. This is where you go from trying to thriving.  The 5508 Entrepreneurs Hub is located at 5508 North 50th Street, Tampa, FL.  Our entrepreneur ecosystem allows beginning, startup, and growing Business Collaborators to build, grow, and scale businesses together through shared resources, strategic support, and economic opportunity.
