WE ARE MORE THAN
A REPOSITORY OF
KNOWLEDGE ABOUT
ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
WE ARE THE CREATORS AND CONVENERS
OF NEW KNOWLEDGE ABOUT ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (Gem)
Babson is the co-founder and catalyst for GEM, the world’s
largest and longest-standing globally focused entrepreneurship
research project. To date, hundreds of scholars and researchers
from more than 70 countries have participated in the GEM project.
Babson College Entrepreneurship
Research Conference (BCERC)
For three decades, Babson has showcased global thought
leadership in entrepreneurship research at BCERC. We publish
the top 40 papers presented at the conference in Frontiers of
Entrepreneurship Research, the most comprehensive collection
of empirical research papers on the subject.
Successful Transgenerational
Entrepreneurship Practices (STEP)
Launched in 2005, STEP explores the entrepreneurial process
within family-owned businesses, identifying practices that
build legacies of social and economic wealth across generations.
Diana Project
Babson is a partner in the Diana Project, a multiyear and
multiuniversity study of female business owners and their
economic growth activities. The Diana Project examines
high-growth, women-led ventures and their access to equity
capital, as well as the role and participation of women in the
venture capital industry.
Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Education (GCEE)
GCEE, founded by Babson, is a network of schools that share
a vision of educational, economic, managerial, and societal
change—centered on the power of Entrepreneurial Thought
and Action, the consideration of human values with profit,
and the importance of co-creating cutting-edge pedagogy
and curricula. GCEE’s partners share a belief that institutions
acting together will achieve more than each would working
alone toward its mission.
