Innovation, passion, and hard work hit the stage during KY Pitch, Kentucky’s largest collegiate business pitch competition. The Governor’s School for Entrepreneurs and the Frazier History Museum team up to present the lively contest on April 2, starting at 10 a.m. Up to sixteen teams representing colleges from across the Commonwealth will pitch their business ideas and field questions from a panel of judges—and you’re invited!

The KY Pitch competition is included with regular admission or membership and will be staged in the Brown-Forman Theatre, directly below our Kentucky Rivalries exhibition, which spotlights the most iconic competitors in the history of the Bluegrass State. Spectators will be able to come and go during the contest.

Come root for Kentucky’s future innovators as they compete for thousands of dollars in funding for their enterprises!
