Corporate Community

AEI believes that private industry, innovation, and entrepreneurship are a bedrock of American society, providing opportunity to millions of Americans and constantly driving new ways of thinking and doing that improve our lives.

AEI’s corporate community seeks to foster a dialogue to better understand the challenges and opportunities facing the private sector. Leaders of the most successful businesses must deal with a political class in Washington, DC, that is often skeptical of corporate motivations, hostile to profits, ambivalent about free enterprise and private initiative, and eager to assert more control. Members of the AEI Corporate Program have access to the most respected research and analysis on a wide range of policy areas and to AEI’s stable of in-house policy experts. Membership in AEI’s Corporate Program offers the opportunity to participate in public and private events; access to AEI’s full slate of studies, articles, books, and other publications; and meetings and conference calls with AEI scholars.

Annual membership-level opportunities:

  • Corporate Leadership Circle: $100,000
  • Executive Circle: $50,000
  • Member: $25,000
