FOUNDER AND PRESENTER OF THE SPIRIT OF THE ENTREPRENEUR In 2003, the Randall W. Lewis Center for Entrepreneurship at California State University San Bernardino, founded the annual “Spirit of the Entrepreneur” Awards Program in the Inland Empire. The awards reflect our passionate belief that the Inland Empire community should honor and reward the entrepreneurial men and women who innovate, take risks, and build businesses that contribute significantly to our local economy.
The Randall W. Lewis Center for Entrepreneurship at Cal State San Bernardino is the largest and most experienced organization in the Inland Empire dedicated to supporting small businesses and entrepreneurship on campus for the Jack H. Brown College of Business & Public Administration’s School of Entrepreneurship, and within the community throughout the Inland Southern California region. Established in 1999, the IECE serves individuals and business owners with comprehensive business counseling, mentoring, innovative training programs, and engaging events. The center is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and continues to expand its reach to all business owners to support them through the post-pandemic repopulation and beyond.
