From Student to CEO

Good grades are great, but they’re not enough.

In a world powered by AI, rapid innovation, and ever-changing opportunities, your child needs more than a diploma—they need the tools to thrive. At our elite business academy, we don’t do theoretical lessons—you can Google that.

Here at KYEA, students aged 12–18 dive headfirst into real-world entrepreneurship, launching ventures from concept to marketplace. Through intensive mentorship and hands-on experience, they don’t just learn the skills of successful founders—they live them.

Build it • Pitch it • Grow it

Why a Business Launch Is the New College Prep

It Makes Your Teen Stand Out

Launching a real business shows colleges your teen doesn’t just follow
They lead.
They build.
They take initiative.

That’s what sets applications apart.

It Builds Unshakable Confidence

Turning an idea into reality changes everything.

Your teen speaks with clarity.
Interviews with conviction.
Shows up like someone who’s already done hard things.

That’s the mindset colleges—and future employers—are looking for.

It Builds Skills School Doesn’t Teach

Launching a business builds what textbooks can’t:

  • Resilience when things fail

  • Communication when pitching ideas

  • Money skills through real budgeting

  • Leadership by taking initiative

What’s the KYEA Summer Pitch Competition?

KYEA Summer Pitch FEST—a stage where young entrepreneurs showcase their groundbreaking ideas and compete for real-world rewards!

We believe that students should be rewarded for their innovation, hard work, and bold ideas. That’s why we provide sponsored pitch competitions and connect qualified students to national and global pitch opportunities where they can compete for awards, funding, and mentorship.

This high-energy event is the culmination of months of hard work, where students pitch their business ideas to a panel of industry experts, investors, and community leaders. It’s not just practice—it’s the real deal.

  • What's Included:

    • 6-Month Entrepreneurship Curriculum: Forget superficial lessons. We dive deep into the entire journey—ideation to launch.

      • Complete Business Journey: Students actually build their business from idea to first prototype/MVP. This isn’t a hobby; it’s a head start in the real world.

      • Foundational Skills Training: Financial modeling, market research, pricing strategy—core competencies most adults never fully master.

      • Personalized Mentorship: Seasoned entrepreneurs guide each student, ensuring they learn to navigate real challenges.
