Boundless Possibility

Florida has always appealed to dreamers and doers. Even when this place was still mostly swampland, Spanish explorers saw its possibility; they built the first permanent European settlement here. Centuries later, rocket scientists would also see possibility in Florida and put men on the moon from its shores. Not surprisingly, that same sense of possibility drives Florida’s economy even today.
