2025 State Finals

About the most elite high school pitch competition in the country.

Ten teams from across Indiana get to compete for $25,000 in seed funding. All finalists are invited to travel to Washington DC in June, and will have the opportunity to acquire thousands of dollars in scholarships and enter the STARTedUP alumni program, where they can stay connected to a vast network of young innovators.

We will be joined by government officials, business leaders, fellow entrepreneurs, educators, and family members.
