The Entrepreneurship Research Centre (ERC) is an independent arm of YEDI, dedicated to advancing the field of entrepreneurship through high-level academic research. By remaining at arm’s length from the accelerator, the ERC ensures objectivity and impartiality in its studies, making significant contributions to understanding entrepreneurship’s impact on the ecosystem and the broader economy.

At ERC, our mission is to explore and determine best practices in entrepreneurship. We focus on research that reflects our own work at YEDI and the cutting-edge studies published by our esteemed faculty. Our findings are designed to serve as a resource for entrepreneurs, academics, and policymakers, offering insights into the factors that drive successful entrepreneurship.

Our research is deeply rooted in the rich experiences and outcomes of YEDI’s programs, offering valuable insights into what makes entrepreneurship flourish. This work is further enriched by the contributions of our esteemed faculty members, whose research, including notable studies by experts like Dr. Marat Ressin, adds depth and credibility. Frequently featured in respected academic journals, these studies help shape the global conversation on entrepreneurship.

ERC invites collaboration with government initiatives and industry professionals. If you’re interested in partnering on a research project or would like to consult with us to get our expert opinions, please reach out via email at [email protected].
