What does the future hold?
Such a question often conjures up images of the latest tech gadgets. Maybe an AI-powered robot? But what about the people who will drive the future?
The members of the latest class of our KY Inno Under 25 represent those future leaders who may hold the collective key to the Kentucky and Southern Indiana tech scene and its ability to adapt and thrive in a changing world.
The group of six were selected by a combination of nominations and LBF staff selections.
Some of them are founders of various sorts. Some of them are high performers at well-established startups within the entrepreneurial ecosystem. One of them is a burgeoning researcher who has been asked to take part in a highly selective international program.
Our youngest selectee is a 17-year-old high school student. Two of them are 25, but have met our criteria of being 25 by today, Sept. 15.
In spite of their differences, as the following Q&As will attest, they do all share several characteristics. Among those commonalities is the desire to be leaders in their fields, and be the mentors to next generation (just as those who have helped them get this far).
You can hear from them in their own words in the Q&As that we've linked below.
