What Makes a Good Nomination?
Think of this nomination as a job interview. A compelling nomination will:
- Get to the point! Many questions have a character limit of 2,000 characters (including spacing and punctuation). They suggest creating your responses in a word document and copying into the nomination form.
- It leaves out the unnecessary. Avoid fluff such as superfluous adjectives and empty praise. Don’t list an exhaustive resume of achievements/accomplishments; stick to the specific reasons why the nominee deserves recognition.
- Make sure to highlight the big impact of your nominee’s work professionally, but don’t be repetitive.
- Quantify your answers. How much revenue did a new innovation generate or what percentage of growth did the company recognize?
Eligibility Requirements
To highlight some of their youngest entrepreneurs and innovators, Inno compiles a list each year of promising and accomplished future leaders in the city’s startup scene.
The Foundation is looking for individuals making a difference at local startups, budding founders working to get their own companies off the ground, student entrepreneurs balancing college courses and building a startup, or individuals supporting the innovation community. Help us tell the stories of young people contributing to the local tech and startup industry in impactful ways.
Eligibility Criteria
- Nominees should be 25 years old or under the age of 25 at time of nomination.
- Nominee must have a physical presence in the Denver metro area defined as: Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties.
- Self-nominations are encouraged.
