Entrepreneurship
The Development Council for Buffalo County supports entrepreneurs by connecting them to resources, removing barriers to growth, and fostering a collaborative environment for business success.
We help connect local and incoming business founders to site development, incentives, grants, and financing, all while fostering workforce pipelines and a collaborative ecosystem. The county’s strategic location, supportive economic community, and young, educated population make it an appealing destination for entrepreneurs looking to start or scale a business in central Nebraska.
