Innovation is happening all around Greater Philadelphia. While that's easy enough to see, what's even more impressive is the young people behind some of the projects.
Students, recent graduates and young professionals are taking their ideas and transforming them into something impactful.
The efforts of more than a dozen people will be spotlighted as part of the Inno Under 25 class for 2022. The PHL Inno initiative recognizes people 25 years and younger who are making waves in the area’s startup ecosystem.
This year’s Inno Under 25 class has participants working in the venture capital and cybersecurity sectors. Others have cultivated concepts focusing on education, prosthetics, and sustainability. Products in the food and beverage and apparel sectors were highlighted. They hail from across the region.
Honorees were selected via a nomination and editorial selection process. You can read all about this year's group in a special print edition of the Philadelphia Business Journal on Sept. 30, as well as online at PHLInno.com.
