Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen is encouraging Nebraskans to register for the One Nebraska Ag & Economic Development Summit.
The event is scheduled for August 7-8, 2024, at the Younes Conference Center North in Kearney.
Troy Dannen, Athletic Director for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, will be the keynote speaker.
“The key to our success is working together as one Nebraska to grow our state,” Pillen said. “At this summer’s Summit, we’ll unite around a shared vision to create great opportunities for our kids and grandkids. We have the most sustainable ag supply chain on the planet, and we’re sitting on our pot of gold—the Ogallala Aquifer. The potential is sky high for Nebraska to be a hub for advanced fermentation, biomanufacturing, and production of next-generation biofuels.”
The Summit aims to bring together economic developers and industry leaders in agriculture and business to discuss the future growth of Nebraska.
Topics will include talent attraction, the emerging bioeconomy, housing and childcare solutions, water resource stewardship, and manufacturing.
