Visions of Impact

The vision for the new Daniels School of Business building is rooted in a commitment to creating a future where innovation, integration, and inspiration converge.

This state-of-the-art facility will serve as a beacon for excellence, not only in business education but also in the seamless integration of technology and science, reflecting the school’s mission to prepare students for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow. By offering cutting-edge classrooms, collaborative spaces, and modern offices, the new building will foster an environment where students, faculty, and staff can thrive, innovate, and lead.

President Emeritus Mitch Daniels’ legacy of transformative leadership is at the heart of this vision. His emphasis on affordability, public education excellence, and return on investment is embodied in this new facility, which will stand as a testament to Purdue’s dedication to evolving and meeting the needs of a changing world. Through the naming opportunities within the building, donors can leave a lasting legacy, becoming an integral part of the stories yet to be written within its walls. This building represents not just a physical space, but a platform for future business leaders to dream bigger, innovate boldly, and impact the world.

I am particularly excited about the innovation lab, where students can engage in hands-on activities and use new technologies to develop novel solutions. This will make them more tech-savvy, proficient problem solvers, ready to lead tomorrow’s technology-dominated industries.
