Patrick Henry Venture Institute

The Patrick Henry Venture Institute is a comprehensive, hands-on business training program that equips Christian students with the tools, experience, and confidence they need to succeed as entrepreneurs.

Each semester, students build and present original business ideas through pitch decks and Shark Tank– style presentations. Fellow students evaluate the business models, offering feedback and refining ideas in real time.

Members also conduct interviews with business owners and specialists to learn about key topics like sales, raising capital, marketing, operations, and more. Students also compete in business pitch competitions, applying what they've learned in high-stakes, real-world settings.

PHVI provides a rigorous environment for Christian students to develop the skill set needed to launch and lead real ventures.
