Our Story

Hey, Welcome!

Brandon Middleton | Investor | Founder of NEST CoLab

"After years in real estate, I realized how overwhelming-and often unreliable-the flood of information out there can be. I created The NEST Colab as a place where we cut through the noise and get straight to growth, bringing clarity, resources, and the right community to help you take that next big step.

Whether it's your first deal or you're deep in the game, my team and I are here to have your back every step of the way. At The NEST, we're not just building businesses-we're building a powerful, collaborative community where everyone's success fuels each other's. Join us, and let's make incredible things happen together!"

Reset. Refreshed. Reimagined.

From its beginnings as an idea, to a fact as a project, and then to a reality as a community, The NEST Colab was built to be that spark, a community where ideas don't just hatch-they grow, evolve, and thrive.

The NEST Colab is the latest evolution of our commitment to building a space where visionaries don't just work-they thrive together. With a refreshed look and a sharpened focus on community and shared growth, we've crafted a hive where each member's success fuels the whole. This new chapter brings the best of what we've built, creating a foundation where entrepreneurs can connect, contribute, and elevate one another to new heights. Welcome to The NEST Colab-the strongest, sharpest, and best-equipped place to thrive in the Tampa Bay area.
