Rooted in Co-Creation, Driven by Action Research, Centered on Community Well-Being
Reframery is more than a program; it's the result of years of peer-reviewed research, evidence-based innovation, co-creation with communities, and cross-sector partnerships on four continents. Our model draws on the academic and practical expertise of our founders and other distinguished faculty worldwide, the grassroots insights of partner community organizations, and the lived experiences of the entrepreneurs we serve. Our work is grounded in three pillars: Ingenuity, Inclusion, and Impact.
We translate cutting-edge research on entrepreneurial ingenuity into practical, accessible training for those facing the toughest barriers.
Every program is co-designed and tested with our partners and participants, ensuring real-world relevance and measurable results.
Our ongoing research and global collaborations drive us to continuously refine, adapt, and expand our support for diverse entrepreneurs.
By connecting rigorous academic methods with the realities of everyday innovators, Reframery turns insight into action and reframes barriers into new beginnings.
This research by the Reframery team informs its philosophy and approach to entrepreneurship research, education, and community development.
Our research spans 55 peer-reviewed publications across leading academic journals and conferences, establishing the theoretical foundation for Reframery's evidence-based approach to inclusive entrepreneurship.
