The University of Nebraska (UN) system includes four research institutions with talented and innovative faculty. It can be the engine of technology, innovation, and talent to accelerate Nebraska’s many excellent home-grown businesses, some of which are in the Fortune 500. This collaboration will enable achievement of business expansion and retention, stimulation of business creation and recruitment, creation of high-skilled jobs, and overall economic growth and diversification in our region. Understanding and improving upon existing informal processes of engagement involving the UN, Nebraska businesses and regional economic development organizations is crucial to the long-term growth of Nebraska, and maximum leverage of its distributed population and resources.
