Coppin State University’s College of Business launched the Center for Strategic Entrepreneurship (CSE), a project designed to help foster business and the entrepreneurial startup ecosystem in west Baltimore.

The CSE is a state-of-the-art innovation and information hub for entrepreneurs, startups and owners. Currently operating virtually to comply with COVID-19 restrictions, the CSE will occupy the newly-renovated entry level of the former Percy Julian Science Building on Coppin’s campus, located at the corner of West North Avenue and North Warwick Avenue, when it opens in 2022.

The CSE’s mission is to “advance the social and economic impact of entrepreneurial activities in the West Baltimore community through research, education, publication, and service. CSE Founding Director Dr. Ronald C. Williams characterized the CSE as a new model for university-based innovation hubs which is community embedded and community focused. He added Coppin has a 121-year legacy of conduit for opportunity.
