The Conduit, a partnership with SunGate Capital, is an interdisciplinary society made up of individuals and companies who believe their lives and work get better when they come alongside each other. Headquartered at SunGate Studios (1001 North Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida) we regularly convene groups around the areas of education, tech, journalism, art, creative services, and civic engagement. We also provide individuals and companies with a membership-based collaborative workspace and consult apartment managers and builders on how to improve their communities.

The Conduit started in 2011 with free-skill-based workshops and songwriters showcases. In 2016, a collaborative workspace in partnership with the Florida Hospital Innovation Lab (FHIL) was piloted. During that period, The Conduit curated and housed 22 companies in a 6,000-square-foot space on the Florida Hospital campus. These companies provide services and products in various industries, such as film, gaming, clothing, leather goods, food, events, branding, education, transportation, social innovation, cause marketing, creative services, photography, and local news.

Due to the prototype's success, the team began looking for a way to scale the concept. The project caught the attention of Ed Haddock, Co-Chairman and CEO of Full Sail University and Founder of SunGate Capital, who was actively looking for ways to connect his entrepreneurial, creative, and social impact DNA with local innovators. In January 2017, the joint venture between The Conduit and SunGate Capital was born.
