Kauffman Fellows Report
A journal-style compilation of executive reports authored by members of the Kauffman Fellows Network, examining all aspects of the capital formation process. The Kauffman Fellows Report began in 2010, and brings rigorous attention to the discussion of venture, capital formation, and innovation worldwide.
The Kauffman Fellows Report compiles and shares the latest findings from across our global network. The focus is on applied, industry solutions that foster the vital process of new business creation. Contributors examine trends with a pragmatic eye and propose original, practical approaches that can be adopted and embraced in the years and decades to come.
We invite each member of the community to engage with us in this critical evaluation of the real-world challenges and opportunities in front of us all, and look forward to the conversations these articles will trigger
