More than 120 Nebraska entrepreneurs, program mentors and community leaders from across the state will be present at the free-to-the-public event to hear participants’ stories and updates on their entrepreneurial growth, and see the progress of EAS in Nebraska, the first state to incorporate this initiative into economic development.
