About the
Charles Chang Institute for Entrepreneurship
The Charles Chang Institute for Entrepreneurship is the interdisciplinary home and academic hub for entrepreneurship and innovation at Simon Fraser University within the Beedie School of Business and in partnership with all SFU Faculties. Here, a diverse network of people and ideas converge to create an environment that fosters entrepreneurial thinking and action. The Institute brings together SFU students, faculty, researchers and community leaders and welcomes entrepreneurs and innovators everywhere to engage and collaborate at the local and global levels.
The Charles Chang Institute cultivates students’ entrepreneurial mindset so they can apply it in a continuum throughout their careers. It offers extraordinary resources and support with experiential learning and skills for real world problem solving with a human-centred approach.
Exploring the Entrepreneurial Mindset, we support entrepreneurs, changemakers and intrapreneurs (those who choose to be team members rather than founders), to find resilient ways of looking at and interacting with the world to prepare for an uncertain future.
