The Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers (GCEC) has been established for the purpose of continued collaboration among the centers. It is the vehicle by which the top established entrepreneurship centers, as well as the new emerging centers, can work together to share information; develop special projects, and assist each other in advancing and improving their centers' impact. The consortium seeks to become a focal point for the Entrepreneurship Centers across the United States and the world to continue the advancement of entrepreneurial excellence. The Johnson Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation in the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University - Bloomington, has been chosen to be the administrative office for the global consortium.
