Make plans to join us for our virtual Summer Venture in Business.

    The Summer Venture in Business is a pre-college summer academy housed in the University of Kansas School of Business for underrepresented ethnic minority students in high school and/or potential first-generation college students who are interested in business.

    Our 2021 Summer Venture in Business (SVB) will be offered virtually this summer. Each SVB session will include an introduction to the School of Business and its student services, a panel with current KU Business students, presentations focused on the school's academic offerings, and a panel and networking mixer with industry professionals.
