The National Center for the Middle Market is the nation's leading source of knowledge, leadership, and innovative research on the middle market economy, providing critical data analysis, insights, and perspectives for companies, policymakers, and other key stakeholders to help accelerate growth, increase competitiveness and create jobs in this sector.

Housed at The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business and sponsored by Visa and Chubb, the center collaborates with academics and practitioners alike to build awareness and action for the middle market.

The Center enthusiastically serves middle market firms, students, academic researchers, policymakers, the media, and other key stakeholders with interests in the health and well-being of the middle market.

The Center is fully committed to funding and distributing the most credible open-sourced research, dynamically creating new knowledge, and providing programs that drive value for middle-market companies. NCMM publishes the nation's most comprehensive middle-market economic barometer, the Middle Market Indicator. This quarterly report examines trends in performance, economic sentiment, and offers insight into future internal and external company challenges.

Supporting and elevating the middle market is a continuing journey and we invite you to join us. Together, we will build the resources needed to help middle market companies better meet their needs and challenges, and to create a voice of advocacy for the middle market across board rooms, classrooms, and seats of government.
