The Go Big Future Launch Forum is the inaugural showcase of the Nebraska Chamber Foundation’s Signature Local Leaders Series, setting the tone for a yearlong exploration of Nebraska’s future through three defining themes: diversified energy, workforce, and technology innovation. This event serves as both a celebration and a call to action, blending data and storytelling to reveal how Nebraska can seize its role as a leader on the national stage while honoring the state’s legacy of resilience and powerful leadership.

This event will affirm that by aligning innovation, community vitality, and long-term investment, Nebraska can assert its competitive edge nationally. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of how affordable energy, technology innovations, and workforce intersect to define Nebraska’s competitive advantage—and will be empowered to become champions of this transformative vision for Nebraska’s success.

Go Big Future Launch Forum will begin with a networking reception on the evening of February 23rd from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. at the Henry Doorly Zoo Scott Aquarium.
