PRIORITIES

Securing Nebraska's Future Together


​The NE Chamber Foundation's priorities include:

Driving Research on Issues Important to Businesses and Identifying Needs for the Future

The NE Chamber Foundation is a nonpartisan research organization, informing and providing tools for state and local leaders to secure Nebraska’s future. The Foundation will be a leader in producing and partnering on several important, nonpartisan studies (workforce and immigration, affordable housing, manufacturing, childcare, etc.) that will help provide an intellectual framework for state and local public policy
Research Projects

The Next Chapter of Nebraska's Future: Blueprint Nebraska   
​
The 2019 Blueprint Nebraska report engaged thousands of Nebraskans in developing a statewide economic plan to retain Nebraska’s Good Life and economic competitiveness through 2030. The 15 initiatives in this report have largely stood the test of time and remain as relevant today. There is a need to help facilitate the implementation of those initiatives with additional research and efforts to connect communities and their leaders. The NE Chamber Foundation is a successor to Blueprint Nebraska and continues to be a key partner in making the original plan a reality.

Measuring Today's Economy: The Nebraska Dashboard   
​
The Nebraska Dashboard for Economy and Workforce is a dynamic online tool that identifies and tracks the key factors impacting Nebraska’s future. The economic and workforce tool helps leaders across the state monitor the key indicators and trends that impact employer and state growth. The Manufacturing Index will help manufacturing and policy leaders track indicators in one of Nebraska’s largest business sectors and measure growth and innovation outcomes. The Nebraska Dashboard gives local stakeholders the power to measure progress and provides Nebraska leaders with the metrics they need to secure the state’s future.

Supporting Leaders: Leadership Nebraska  
​
The NE Chamber Foundation is developing the next generation of engaged and informed leaders through Leadership Nebraska. This is a statewide, nonpartisan, civic leadership development program. The goal of this nine-month program is to immerse new and emerging leaders from across the state to develop and hone leadership skills, while gaining a broader understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing Nebraska in various areas. 
​

This program uniquely highlights the impact of public policy on Nebraska’s job creators and offers an important network of ambitious and informed leaders with the energy and interest to gain a better understanding of how public policy impacts the economic landscape.

Building Nebraska's Future: Nebraska Business Hall of Fame Scholarships  
​​
With declining college enrollments and growing financial strains on students, providing educational opportunities to more students is more important than ever. The purpose of the Nebraska Business Hall of Fame scholarship program is to provide scholarship assistance to deserving students attending recognized Nebraska colleges and universities and seeking degrees in business-related fields of study. In total, $238,000 in scholarships have been awarded to 120 students since 1997. ​
