The Business and Public Policy Center elevates business and policy relevant research and connects a wide range of people with the same goals.

The mission of the BPPC is to foster understanding and collaboration between businesses and public policy makers through education and research. We aim to promote sustainable and inclusive growth through research and dialogue. Our focus is on creating a platform where business strategies and public policies can align for the greater good of society.

To achieve these goals, the BPPC:

• Holds conferences and seminars.
• Finds and promotes relevant policy research.
• Supports research through survey and grant administration.

The Business and Public Policy Center is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical educational nonprofit that seeks to elevate members' business and policy-relevant research and does not promote any particular policy or program. Organized as a nonprofit in 2023, this organization has its roots in several efforts that began in 2015. The Business and Public Policy Center is governed by a board and supported by its members and sponsors with the aim of highlighting policy-relevant research to help policymakers and businesses make informed decisions.

The Business and Public Policy Center provides members a platform to enhance and amplify their research. Members organize into working groups; for example, Tax Working Group and Urban Finance Working Group. The Business and Public Policy Center provides members with logistical assistance in the research process, including survey design and grant administration.

Membership is open to all researchers interested in a collaborative, inclusive, and supportive community to share ideas and produce research of the highest quality. To achieve a broader gamut of thought and research, we encourage diversity in membership across identities and domains such as careers (including researchers in government, corporate, academic, and independent professionals), fields of study (including accounting, economics, finance, and law), and countries. Innovation is sparked by diverse voices that combine to create new insights into difficult problems.
