CFMG is located within the USF Polytechnic’s business accelerator, Blue Sky East, which uses technology and research to support companies building new products and services.
Blue Sky is Polk, Highland and Hardee county’s first university-based incubator/accelerator program and engaged in a competitive application process to select the right mix of companies for its inaugural year. The incubator provides mentoring, network opportunities, access to academic and business expertise as well as technology support for selected companies.
The founder of CFMG, Nelson Kirkland said, “We’re thrilled to be working with Blue Sky. A lot goes into developing new products and services and the atmosphere of collaboration at a business accelerator makes the process easier and more successful.”
