Who should apply?
The mission of PERC's Enviropreneur Institute (PEI) is to empower environmental
entrepreneurs in the application of property, contracts, and markets to enhance
environmental assets. PERC is especially interested in attracting early and
mid-career conservation leaders with at least three years of real world
experience in the conservation arena. If this describes you and you are
interested in learning how environmental problems can become environmental
assets, creating win-win situations for the environment and developing a
network of like-minded Enviropreneurs, then please consider applying to our program.
What's in it for you?
While participating in PEI you will have the opportunity to network and learn from
environmental economists, marketing and business professionals as well as like-minded
peers in the conservation community. This experience will provide invaluable
professional and personal growth as you will have the opportunity to apply
innovative approaches to the project or business that most interests you
with the assistance of academic and business mentors while being removed
from the rigors of your day-to-day life.

"In a world of increasing pessimism about the economy and the environment, PEI stands out
as a refreshing front of hope. During my time at the Enviropreneur Institute I
learned many practical and theoretical lessons that will assist my work in free
market environmentalism. However, the most beneficial aspect of the program was
the connections with PERC staff, fellows, and alumni and their can do spirits."
