Concordia Free Enterprise Center

The Center is founded upon the belief that those who benefit the most from free markets are the have-nots: those without inherited wealth, prestigious credentials, or class advantages. In other words, the people who benefit most from a capitalist system are those whose hope for a better life depend on an economy that rewards hard work and enterprise. And these ideas are congruent with Concordia University’s mission committed to helping students develop in mind, body and spirit, for service to Christ in the Church and the world. CFEC’s mission, in alignment with Concordia University, is accomplished by recognizing that each individual possesses a God-given talent that can be developed through nurturing and encouragement by means of innovation and creativity in service to humanity.
