The Barton School of Business is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Chris Broberg as interim director of the Center for Entrepreneurship (CFE). Broberg currently serves as associate professor of entrepreneurship and associate dean for faculty and research within the Barton School. The Barton School extends its sincere gratitude to Nancy Kersenbrock for her service as interim director. She will return to her longstanding role as associate director of the Center, a position she has held since 2015.
Founded in 1977 by Fran Jabara — professor, former dean of the Barton School, and inaugural member of the Barton School’s “Beyond” 2024 Hall of Fame — the Center for Entrepreneurship has been internationally recognized as one of the finest and most comprehensive programs in the nation. The Center for Entrepreneurship was one of the first of its kind on a college campus, launching with a workshop titled “Entrepreneurship: Your Future in Business,” developed by Jabara.
