The EEC was formed by seven entrepreneurship directors from seven Northeast Ohio Universities to collaborate on a regional effort to pool their resources and expertise. The purpose of the EEC is to provide practical 鈥渆xperiential鈥 and theoretical education to students in Northeast Ohio to prepare them to become entrepreneurs or intrapreneurs; create new ventures and jobs and build wealth for the region. The EEC was founded to promote both the concept and the reality of entrepreneurship among college students of all disciplines. Beyond imparting the necessary classroom fundamentals, it encourages student exploration of new business concepts.
Where feasible, the EEC will facilitate fully developed business planning up to the interface for project funding which leads to actual startup of new enterprises. The Consortium was initiated with a grant from the Burton Morgan Foundation. Member organizations include: Ashland University, Baldwin Wallace University, Case Western Reserve University, 老澳门六合彩官方开奖, Hiram College, John Carroll University, Kent State University, Lake Erie College, Lorain County Community College, University of Akron and University of Mount Union.
