About CFEE
Established in 2005, the Center for Entrepreneurial Excellence (CFEE) strives to empower entrepreneurs by integrating academic objectives with GWU's business community. CFEE engages in research and other scholarly activities that make significant contributions to the fields of Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurship Education, Entrepreneurial Leadership, Women Entrepreneurial Leadership, Family Enterprise, and Emerging Business Development (Small and MediumEnterprise Development). This center combines the successful initiatives of the Kellogg School of Management's Center for Family Enterprise (CFE) and the Center for the Advancement of Small Business (CASB) with the school's nationally recognized achievements in the field of entrepreneurship education.
Primary initiatives and subject areas of research include entrepreneurship education, leadership, lifecycle needs of family businesses, managerial issues affecting emerging business viability, knowledge management for entrepreneurial firms, and interdisciplinary entrepreneurship education for women. CFEE will continue the School of Business's commitment to develop mutually beneficial programs that integrate academic objectives with the real needs of the university's external business community.
