The Flagship Enterprise Center
Created through a partnership between Anderson University and the City of Anderson, the Flagship Enterprise Center (FEC) serves as a new business incubator and growth stage business accelerator. Through its client-specific Client Support Program, the FEC helps emerging companies become independently viable. Located at I-69 and Martin Luther King Blvd. (exit 22) in Anderson, the FEC provides ongoing contact with management consultants, university researchers, student mentoring programs and access to capital. The FEC and its partners seek to encourage and nurture the entrepreneurial spirit within the community. The Flagship Enterprise Center is both an educational and technological incubator helping businesses develop and transition their technologies into real world applications and products in global markets. The FEC is one of the largest such centers in Indiana.
With our experienced staff and partnerships with various businesses around Madison County, we work with selected clients, providing client-specific support systems. Through Flagship Consulting, we outsource our client support to ensure our clients receive the best there is to offer. We provide access to capital with flexible terms. We offer of short term leases, laboratory space, and when appropriate, access to human capital. Our overall objective is to enable a business to succeed and ultimately become independent.
We want the name “Flagship” to become synonymous with “Success” in Indiana. When our clients become independently viable businesses, we believe the Flagship is a success as well. As we continue graduating clients, we want to transform the community of Anderson into a destination of choice for entrepreneurial businesses and business leaders, creating new enterprises, new jobs and new markets. Ultimately, this will result in the economic renewal of the area served by the FEC.
