Babson's research defines a new category of entrepreneurial leaders who draw on powerful new ways to create economic and social value.

The Babson Entrepreneur Experience Lab, a partnership between Babson College and the Business Innovation Factory, has released a Masterclass report that defines a new category of entrepreneurial leaders who, in their work and in the organizations they build, draw on powerful new ways to create economic and social value.

The Masterclass report details the distinctive actions of these entrepreneurs that set them apart. “Masterclass Entrepreneurs challenge the separation of profit and purpose; contradict current conversation about models and scale; disrupt our ideas of a market; and call into question exactly who gets to innovate.” said Babson College Entrepreneurship Professor Heidi Neck, Director of the Entrepreneur Experience Lab. “They deliver significant outcomes and generate socioeconomic value for the communities, markets and organizations they serve.”
