Vogt Invention & Innovation Awards Demo Day 2025

The Community Foundation of Louisville’s legendary Vogt Invention and Innovation Awards presents this year’s Vogt Awards Demo Day on Thursday, November 13, at the Kentucky Derby Museum. At this free event, up to six dynamic founders will take center stage to showcase their big ideas and innovative solutions in various industries. Since 2000, Vogt Awards recipients have demonstrated their worth as pioneering companies, impacting the local, regional, and national business community.
The program is proud to have supported 108 companies to date with more than $4.1 million in grants in its 25-year history. Nearly 41% of funds have gone to support women or founders of color – highlighting that the Vogt Awards are a model for increasing access to capital and encouraging economic freedom.
