Leonardo After Hours is back with “Innovation Idol: Superhero Edition,” the inaugural After Hours event held inside The Leonardo, Utah’s newest museum. 



On Wednesday, Dec. 7, four fantastic entrepreneurial innovators will assemble in the hallowed halls of The Leonardo to battle it out for the coveted title of “Innovation Idol.” 



Contestants will have just seven minutes to demonstrate their innovations, and persuade the panel of expert judges and audience members that their idea deserves the title—as well as a $500 cash prize.  Each contestant represents a super-heroic innovation with the potential to save lives, increase safety, and improve quality of life for thousands and even millions of people.  



When: Wed. Dec 7, 6pm – 7:30pm

Free Preview of The Leonardo: 5:15pm – 5:45pm

Where: The Leonardo, 209 East 500 South 



Contestants were chosen from the top ranks of projects that have received grant funding through the Governor's Office of Economic Development Technology Commercialization and Innovation Program.



Participants can arrive at 5:15 p.m. for a FREE preview of Utah’s newest museum. Admittance is free, but RSPVs are required.  Please respond to rsvp@theleonardo or 801/531-9800, ext. 100.



Leonardo After Hours is a joint production by The Leonardo and the Utah Science Technology and Research Initiative (USTAR).
