Several years ago
SIPA launched an initiative aimed at
more scholarship and engagement around
entrepreneurship and digital technology
and public policy. And as a result of
support from the Nasdaq Educational
Foundation as well as the Carnegie
Corporation, we've initiated an Ideas Lab,
we've brought great thinkers to our
campus,
we've been seeding research, convening
different groups supporting young
entrepreneurs, and supporting our own
students in their entrepreneurial
ventures. This discussion with Steve
Case and Secretary Lew is a wonderful
opportunity to think together about how
the profile of entrepreneurship is
changing across America and how public
policy can make a difference. We're
thinking about the entrepreneurship
ecosystem: what interventions matter how
this is changing across American cities,
and cities globally, and the role of
great research universities in support
of entrepreneurship.
