KANEKO and the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce are teaming up once again to shine a spotlight on failure. Thursday evening at KANEKO, the two groups will present the second installment of Failing Forward Conversations, which will feature Hurrdat founder Blake Lawrence, former TD Ameritrade COO Pete Ricketts and Gallup entrepreneurship researcher Sangeeta Badal, Ph.D.

“One of the big reasons for Failing Forward Conversations is how do we just open up this dialogue?” Dusty Reynolds, the Omaha Chamber’s director of innovation and entrepreneurship, says in a promotional video for the event (above). “How do we get people to come in from the outside, plus people from the inside and say, ‘We’re all broken people, and let’s talk about this.’ “

Failing Forward, which runs from 6:30-8 p.m. Thursday, is free and open to the public. Details and registration are at failingforward.co.
