With the unwavering support and generosity of its donors and community, PBA launched the God-Sized Dreams campaign in 2022. In addition to meeting the needs of a growing student body, this bold master plan serves as a response to the remarkable growth in West Palm Beach. The city has garnered national attention as dozens of Fortune 500 companies move in just across the street—making “Wall Street South” an ideal place for students to intern and work.
With this growth, PBA has a significant opportunity to better respond to marketplace changes, expand academic programs and create innovative spaces for students, industry leaders and the public.
In January 2024, PBA broke ground on its much-anticipated Marshall and Vera Lea Rinker Business Hall. At six stories and 125,000 square feet, the facility will expand elite business education in South Florida.
This new building launches the beginning of a masterplan that will see further improvements to the West Palm Beach campus. PBA is grateful to have a campaign leadership committee that is placing focus on bringing new, close relationships to PBA and reaching the $75 million goal to fund the business hall. As of October 2024, the campaign has raised over $52 million.
