The Georgetown Center for Business and Public Policy was created in 2001 to encourage dialogue and to document and disseminate knowledge on a range of issues in the public interest. Our mission is to engage scholars, business people and policymakers in relevant inquiries and dialogue to impact key business, economic, and public policy issues confronting American and international businesses today. The McDonough School has an international focus, a rigorous academic environment, and a diverse student body that make the Georgetown experience unique. Within that framework, The Georgetown Center stands as a creative and intellectual marketplace for thoughtful exploration and careful testing of ideas on real world problems.
