Research and Outreach
Outreach
In alignment with our university’s land grant mission, the Center for Principled Business at Kansas State University engages in teaching and research activities to develop business leaders and enhance societal prosperity. We work to increase the public’s awareness and understanding of issues related to entrepreneurship and innovation, business ethics, and economic education.
The research focus of the Center is centered around the confluence of markets, businesses, and individuals and how those three groups interact to create value for society.
The Center for Principled Business offers a variety of practitioner-focused research briefs, working papers, articles, video commentary, and other thought pieces related to our focus areas, the current pandemic situation and political climate, and their impacts.
