Bertarelli Institute for Family Entrepreneurship

Celebrating the Bertarelli Institute for Family Entrepreneurship

For Ernesto Bertarelli ’89, family entrepreneurship is less about the business itself and more about the family and its dynamics. His vision and his experience—as a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist who currently runs B-FLEXION and, with his sister and mother, the Bertarelli Foundation—have inspired and driven Babson College to advance the field of family entrepreneurship.
