Eastern Kentucky is a region defined by grit, creativity, and an unshakable sense of community. Now, a new initiative is building on that legacy—using entrepreneurial thinking as a tool for renewal, resilience, and economic transformation.
The Eastern Kentucky Entrepreneurial Mindset Project is a bold effort to introduce entrepreneurial mindset education across the region, creating new pathways for workforce readiness, second-chance opportunities, and small business development. We’re inviting corporate, philanthropic, and civic partners to help us develop and scale this model, from pilot programs to regional impact.
