The institute for entrepreneurial leadership (ifel), founded in 2002, is an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that seeks to foster a more inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem. Our mission is to eradicate the systemic barriers that prevent people from historically excluded populations from accessing the knowledge, networks, and capital required for entrepreneurial success and wealth creation. Ifel works with corporate, institutional, higher education, and community partners to develop and implement innovative, inclusive, high-touch programming that promotes inclusion within the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
