For Students

The Bertarelli Institute for Family Entrepreneurship (BIFE) recognizes that Family Entrepreneurship is much more than just a family business. It may include multiple businesses and entrepreneurial ventures. By preparing the next generation and helping them understand their family entrepreneurship legacy, BIFE helps strengthen and grow family businesses around the world.

Through insightful research and innovative courses and co-curricular activities, students explore ways to:

• Engage with their families and take on their family entrepreneurial legacy;
• Solve challenges at the nexus of personal, family and business; and
• Form impactful value-added curated connectivity with the Babson community, including peer networks and experience sharing.
