"Entrepreneurship education attracts substantial private-sector financial contributions, produces self-sufficient enterprising individuals, produces successful business and industry leaders, enhances a graduate?s ability to create wealth, produces champions of innovation, and leads to greater opportunities with advancing technologies."

Impact of Entrepreneurship Education by educators Alberta Charney & Gary D. Libecap

En-tre-pre-neur: n

one who organizes, manages and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise.

Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary

You were the first on your block to have a successful lemonade stand.

You sold candy, magazines, cookies, popcorn, door-to-door and won prizes for your salesmanship.

When given a choice, you'd rather lead than follow.

If you are an independent thinker and have a vision of making a difference in the business world, The Center of Excellence for Entrepreneurship & Business Innovation, sponsored by Kent State's College of Business, is looking for you.

Whether bringing new ideas to the marketplace or acting as change agents within established companies, individuals who embrace a spirit of opportunity and innovation are key to economic growth. Our entrepreneurial programs and entrepreneurship education will equip and empower business leaders for the challenges and opportunities of Tomorrow.
