==An Economic Research Wiki==
<div aria-hidden="true" role="presentation">[[File:Stowe, Vermont in October CroppedStoweTownHall50pcEdEgan.jpg|right|thumb|320px|This site is hosted in Stowe, Vermont]]</div>This site hosts a [https://www.mediawiki.org mediawiki]-based collaboration platform, which provides a development environment, documentation, and content, for [[affiliate]]d economic researchers, as well as computer scientists, and finance professionals. It primarily supports research lead by or conducted in partnership with [[Ed Egan]]. Accordingly, much of the platform is targeted towards research in corporate finance, industrial organization, business economics, and firm strategy, especially as it is applied to the fields of entrepreneurship and innovation. However, the [[tool|tools]], [[data]], and other [[projects|project]] outputs it documents are applicable to many other disciplines and topic areas.
Previous incarnations of this wiki supported the Georgetown University team working on [[Kauffman Incubator Project]], the work done by over [[McNair Team|70 research interns ]] at the [[McNair Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation]] at Rice University's Baker Institute, and the doctoral community at the Haas School of Business, U.C. Berkeley, especially in the [[Business and Public Policy]] and [[Hass Finance|Finance]] groupsgroup. Much of this content, as well as several hundred pages from prior versions of Ed's personal website, is available as a part of the [[Information Library]]. A variety of [[how-to ]] and [[guide|guides]], including documentation on how to build and configure [[Research Computing Infrastructure]], and other useful resources are also archived there.
