The Kauffman Foundation is soliciting grant proposals to investigate trends specific to Millennials and Baby Boomers as it relates to entrepreneurship. Research proposals dedicated to an individual topic, as well as multi-disciplinary and holistic study will be considered. Policy oriented research proposals are particularly encouraged. The deadline for submissions is April 17, 2015.
Please visit the 2015 Entrepreneurship Address website and see the Call for Proposals Future Trends in Entrepreneurship for more information.
“As a part of the 2015 State of Entrepreneurship report and February 11, 2015 event, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation has chosen to highlight trends in two particular demographic groups as a means of exploring future potential directions for entrepreneurship in the United States in 2020 – Millennials and Baby Boomers. Millennials have been showing declining rates of entrepreneurship in many recent national studies, but are in other ways America’s most entrepreneurially-exposed generation. Baby Boomers have been prolific entrepreneurial contributors, but are entering traditional ages for retirement.”
