  Mission  
   
The Gigot Center promotes the following qualities of entrepreneurship:
 
Innovation
  Serving students from every College within the University, the Center aims to foster innovation and "create a sense of the possible" among current and aspiring entrepreneurs.
Vision
  The Gigot Center curriculum emphasizes the core of entrepreneurship: vision and strategic thinking. Intuition is encouraged and students are challenged to "think like entrepreneurs" so that they will be able to recognize opportunities and face challenges head-on.
Imagination
  In partnering with local companies and alumni from around the globe, Notre Dame's students gain vital experience and are challenged to use their imagination and intellect to make a difference.
Passion
  At the Gigot Center, encouraging "the passion for creating value" is at the heart of the program. But the education here goes far beyond that. The professors stress the importance of liking what you do, balancing your life, and having a passion for your business as essentials for success.
Connection
  Through the Advisory Board and Notre Dame's alumni network, the Gigot Center provides the network necessary for students to build successful businesses.
