In Nebraska, valuations are low, potential revenues are high, and founders are humble to a fault. Entrepreneurs from the region work their tails off to create a business — that’s the Midwest mentality and approach.

I recognize that there’s work to be done to put more of our successes on the radar. Indeed, our quiet approach to building our startup ecosystem presence is a double-edged sword.
