The UT Board of Fellows hosts two Business Network Symposia each year. Businesses that are well known, changing, or new to Tampa Bay are given the opportunity to share their accomplishments and plans with the business community.

Established in 1973, the UT Board of Fellows serves as goodwill ambassadors who strengthen the University's relationship with the business community.
