University of Louisiana at Lafayette
The Louisiana Entrepreneurship and Economic Development Center (LEED), within the Moody College of Business at UL Lafayette, will increase its contributions to Acadiana and Louisiana by engaging students, entrepreneurs, and economic developers through technical assistance and programming that increases regional competitiveness. Through efforts within the University, in distressed communities and in parishes (counties) of persistent poverty, the LEED Center will contribute by providing technical assistance and will improve equity by tailoring programming to engage minority, low-income, and rural communities.
