A round of applause for our Big Omaha sponsors

As we head into next week, the SPN team wanted to send another wave of thanks to our partners. The support received from our sponsors has been crucial to the success of every event over the past six years, and while we could never truly say what this support means to us, perhaps a simple thank you is a good first step.

 

A supporter of SPN and the Big Series, the Kauffman foundation is excited to welcome you to Big Omaha again this year! Combining their vision of entrepreneurship and education, Kauffman’s Founders School curriculum prepares today’s entrepreneurs for the future. Ewing Marion Kauffman once said “It’s your right to be uncommon if you can. You seek opportunity to compete. You desire to take the calculated risk, to dream, to build, yes, even to fail, and to succeed.” These principles are the very foundation of what Big Omaha stands for, and it is through Kauffman’s support of our community that they enable founders, creatives, investors and more connect offline to be inspired and feel empowered.

 

At Big Omaha, we love the companies that strive for greatness, but at the foundation of the hard work, dedication and talent there exists something else… Hardware? Software? What are these beautiful things? Our friends at CDW have been specializing in integrated IT solutions that enable our community to succeed at the root of what they do. Not only are they partnering with SPN for the Middle Party, but they have a surprise up their sleeve for you, too.

 

Every individual has a personal style, and similarly, we all envision our work in unique ways. Given the various contributing elements, stakeholders and intended impact, Adobe Systems empowers us to do this through the Adobe Type Library (it contains more than 2,000 crafted and award-winning fonts!). As we strive to engage our community, stakeholders and customers, Adobe allows us to provide top-notch interactions and communicate the style, feeling and message that is so dear to ourselves, our product and our companies. When you take a break and wander the beautifully remodeled upstairs of KANEKO, you’ll have the opportunity to see and craft the fonts that convey your stylized message in this year’s Blogger Lounge.

 

It’s a great time to be at Yahoo. Yahoo is focused on making the world’s daily habits inspiring and entertaining. By creating highly personalized experiences for our users, they keep people connected to what matters most to them, across devices and around the world. Yahoo has a strong foothold in the Omaha/La Vista area and you can learn more about those activities by following Yahoo Omaha on Tumblr.
