The Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship (IECE) 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 has served over 180,000 individuals and business owners with comprehensive business counseling, mentoring, innovative training programs and engaging events. These services have resulted in the creation and retention of nearly 50,000 jobs and an economic impact of $675 million. 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. The top-tier segments of the IECE include the Women’s Business Centers IEWBC.org & CVWBC.org, the Small Business Development Center (IESBDC) and the Cross Border E-Commerce-Asia program (CBEC Asia) and the Spirit of the Entrepreneur Awards .
