Wow, thank you! Last Friday night at a University of Nebraska Omaha gala event, in front of 180 peers and Nebraska leaders, I (Nate) was awarded the Under 30 Entrepreneur of the Year. I am humbled and so grateful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening began with remarks by the founder of Godfather\u2019s Pizza, Willy Theisen; the founder of Deeb Real Estate and business leader, Van Deeb; and the professor of entrepreneurship at the University of Nebraska Omaha, Dale Easley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other awards were given for outstanding UNO alumni such as high-growth business of the year (Monday Motorbikes), social venture of the year (Together a Greater Good), company culture of the year (Flywheel), and female entrepreneur of the year (Four Sisters Boutique).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing old friends Derek Sterns and Keith Fix was great, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some pictures from the night, followed by a copy of my acceptance speech.<\/p>\n\n\n
