Free Enterprise encompasses the institutions and conditions that enable individuals and organizations to pursue entrepreneurial ideas, enter and compete in markets, and create economic and societal value, while examining the legal, ethical, technological, and regulatory frameworks necessary to ensure fair competition and meaningful participation. Funded by a generous gift from Bruce and Patricia Bartlett, the Bartlett Chair of Free Enterprise affirms Bentley's commitment to fostering free expression, intellectual pluralism, and the constructive exchange of ideas as central to a liberal education.
