What is The DeVoe L. Moore Institute?
The DeVoe L. Moore Institute (DMI) is a market-oriented research think tank located on Florida State University’s campus, aiming to produce interdisciplinary, market-oriented research that analyzes, develops, and proposes policy solutions and guidance to policymakers at the state and local levels. Researchers conduct research on public policy issues in Florida, particularly on government accountability and transparency, economic development, entrepreneurship, land use, urban development, and regulation.
The DMI was created in 1998 through an endowment established by Tallahassee-based entrepreneur DeVoe L. Moore. The Institute supplements its operational funds through grants and individual contributions that enhance the Institute’s mission and strategic goal. An independent Advisory Board, established in the founding gift agreement, regularly monitors the Institute’s work and progress.
