NCEC Presents NASDAQ Entrepreneurial Excellence Awards
The National Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers (NCEC) presented on Tuesday the 2002 NASDAQ Entrepreneurial Excellence Awards to entrepreneurship centers at Babson College, Indiana University-Bloomington, and Saint Louis University.
The award recognizes achievements and efforts of entrepreneurship centers in the following areas: entrepreneurship research, outreach to emerging ventures, entrepreneurship curriculum, community collaborations, special projects, and overall prestige and recognition in the entrepreneurship field. The award honors centers that have made and will continue to make enormous contributions in advancing entrepreneurship as the force in economic growth throughout the world.
Selections are made by a panel of NASDAQ representatives, previous honorees, and distinguished professors of entrepreneurship at some of the leading programs in the country.
This year's honorees include the Arthur M. Blank Center for Entrepreneurship at Babson College, Johnson Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation at Indiana University-Bloomington, and the Jefferson Smurfit Center for Entrepreneurial Studies at the John Cook School of Business and Administration at Saint Louis University.
Under the sponsorship of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, NASDAQ, and Beacon Venture Capital, NCEC exists for the purpose of continued collaboration among the centers. A complete listing of all member universities is available at the NCEC website: http://www.nationalconsortium.org/
