Building a brighter policy future for American entrepreneurs

2025 was a very busy year for CAE on all fronts — indeed, our most active and impactful year to date.  The Year-and-Review below provides a summary of our major activities and achievements, with hotlinks to relevant letters, Op/Eds, and other documents.

Between May and October of 2025, the Center for American Entrepreneurship conducted four roundtables with entrepreneurs who are using and developing artificial intelligence (AI) tools and applications to launch and grow their businesses.  The roundtables took place in Houston, TX on May 6^th, Atlanta, GA on September 11^th, Miami, FL on September 24^th, and Milwaukee, WI on October 24^th.  The discussions were conducted in collaboration with gener8tor, a national and international network of startup accelerators, based in Madison, WI, which manages 105 startup accelerators across 47 communities in 28 states.  Joe Kirgues, co-founder of gener8tor and a member of CAE’s board, moderated the roundtables.
