The Nebraska Chamber Foundation’s GO BIG FUTURE initiative has brought together leaders from across Nebraska to explore a defining question: How can Nebraska sustain growth, opportunity and competitiveness?

Through the initiative’s events and a statewide strategic input survey (now underway), GO BIG FUTURE is gathering broader perspectives on the priorities, barriers and opportunities shaping Nebraska’s future. The next step is turning that momentum into deeper engagement. That is the purpose of the Go Big Momentum Forum.

On August 17 and 18 in Kearney, we will convene leaders from business, education, economic development, government and other sectors for a working forum focused on Nebraska’s future. Unlike traditional conferences, Go Big Momentum is designed for participation, not passive attendance. We will move beyond presentations and into active working sessions focused on three interconnected priorities:

• Workforce and Talent
• Energy and Infrastructure
• Technology and Innovation

Participants will engage in small-group discussions designed to surface practical ideas, identify barriers, pressure-test priorities, and help shape what comes next for Nebraska. This is an opportunity to bring your perspective, challenge assumptions, build on the ideas emerging throughout GO BIG FUTURE and contribute directly to the conversation about Nebraska’s long-term growth and competitiveness.

If you’re ready to help shape the momentum — not simply observe it — we hope you’ll join us in Kearney.
