Research and Thought Leadership
The Batten Institute for Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Technology supports the development of entrepreneurial leaders by translating Darden academic research into practice. We achieve this through articles, opinion pieces, webinars, podcasts, books, briefings, and multi-stakeholder events. The goal of this translational work is to present research findings to business leaders and policymakers in a way that is relevant and actionable.
At Batten, we believe that it is at the intersection of research and practice where new ideas can grow and flourish. Our initiatives bring together Darden's collective expertise on issues of global importance, such as sustainability and digital transformation, and engages corporate leaders in critical dialogue around solutions.
