About us

Established in 2008, the Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Research Group builds on the work and reputation of the former Welsh Enterprise Institute. 

Our research and activities aim to inform enterprise and entrepreneurship policy development and practice among both the business support sector and among entrepreneurs themselves. 

They are underpinned by a commitment to promoting and supporting an interest in responsible, ethical, sustainable, inclusive enterprise and entrepreneurship.
