Kohler Center for Entrepreneurship

Create. Innovate. Start.

The Kohler Center fosters new ventures, encourages innovation, and promotes entrepreneurship at Marquette University.

Entrepreneurship at Marquette University encompasses an undergraduate major and minor in the College of Business Administration, a program in social entrepreneurship, a graduate certificate in entrepreneurship, classes in the MBA and EMBA programs, student project experiences both locally and globally, and close ties to a strong network of alumni and Milwaukee-area startup experts who provide their experience and mentorship.  An incubator space and portfolio of entrepreneurial resources are available on campus for startups.  The Kohler Center also hosts bi-weekly Lunch and Learn workshops on various entrepreneurial topics geared to offer firsthand startup expertise.  This fall, the Kohler Center is bringing Startup Weekend Milwaukee to the Marquette campus.

Whether you are testing your idea, need expert advice, or are looking for funding, the Kohler Center will help you grow your venture.
