Who we are

The CLEI is a vehicle for multidisciplinary collaborators to form and deploy teams that promote the use of entrepreneurship and innovation in providing high-quality education, addressing societal needs with a diversity of knowledge bases and perspectives, and producing thoughtful and effective solutions to generate public good. UMKC’s CLEI is led by the Law School because laws are involved in virtually all challenging endeavors and the Law School emphasizes training context-aware, creative, brave, and generous lawyers to join in teams that are instruments of positive change in communities, businesses, policy, research, and the arts. We exemplify that belief by partnering with leaders from all fields in common missions to make all of the communities we serve more prosperous.
