Our mission is to help these companies become more successful by providing affordable, private office space, mentors, business services and serendipitous opportunities.

Co:Lab launched in 2008 as the Gulf Coast Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) partnering with Pensacola State College and the Greater Pensacola Chamber of Commerce as part of their economic development effort.
Our modest beginnings of two flagship tenants grew quickly and in 2011 we expanded to 15,000 sq. ft. and two floors in PSC’s downtown campus. Through the years we’ve maintained an occupancy of more than 80% helping more than 26 unique businesses, each in varying stages of growth and development.
Our six graduate businesses are the Analyst Group, Engineering and Planning Resources (EPR), Robotics Unlimited, Pay Sell, Clearstream and ReVera Services.
Currently we have 12 member companies who, along with our graduates, have employed hundreds of people while growing their businesses within our friendly confines.
