About the Center

The authoritative source for innovative middle market research, outreach and education

Informing and Engaging Leaders and Decision-Makers

The National Center for the Middle Market, housed at The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business and supported by Chubb, Visa and Wells Fargo, studies and raises awareness of the thousands of middle market companies forming the backbone of the U.S. economy. By tracking performance and diving deeply into the growth drivers and challenges unique to this sector, the center surfaces trends and insights that it shares widely with stakeholders through content, community, and programs.

Collectively, these research and outreach efforts help strengthen the competitiveness and continued prosperity of the nation’s most unrecognized economic engine.
