Pappajohn Center recognized again among entrepreneurial universities
Iowa State's Pappajohn Center for Entrepreneurship was the runner-up in the Accreditation Council for Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities' (ACEEU) prestigious 2024 Triple E (Entrepreneurship and Engagement Excellence) Awards, in the category of America's Most Impactful Initiative of the Year. The award was presented at the ACEEU's 2024 Americas Forum in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Triple E Awards recognize global efforts in entrepreneurship and engagement in higher education.
Additionally, center director Judi Eyles was invited to participate on a panel group discussing "Driving Innovation and Community Impact: The Critical Role of Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities."
The 2024 recognition follows the center's success last year when it was named 2023 Entrepreneurial University of the Year, the council's highest recognition.
