The conference center is a part of the broad-ranging Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation which focuses efforts in education, entrepreneurship and KC Civic. The Kauffman family, at one time, owned the Kansas City Royals.
The Advanced program had to fit the Foundation mission to be allowed to use the conference center and, because of our education, training and entrepreneurship curriculum, the application was endorsed by the Foundation leadership.
