Welcome to Lincoln
Lincoln, a city of nearly 250,000 people, offers the ambiance of a friendly small town and the amenities, attractions, and entertainment opportunities of a major metropolitan area. Lincoln is both the state capital and the home of the flagship campus of the University of Nebraska. As a result, it provides a greater range of offerings than might be expected in a community of its size. Efficient transportation, a stable business environment, advanced health care technology, and an excellent educational system are just a few reasons why Lincoln ranks highly in livability studies.

In 2006, a group of Lincoln business and civic leaders, now known as 2015 Vision, began developing a bold, new community vision.
The term "Antelope Valley Projects" describes the first 6 to ten year set of approved governmental projects that are being built in the historical center of Lincoln. Sponsored by the City of Lincoln, University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the Lower Platte South Natural Resources District, the Antelope Valley Projects address the following purposes:
Citing Nebraska’s favorable business climate and Lincoln’s highly educated workforce as key factors, Verizon Wireless chose to open the doors of its newest customer service center in Lincoln. The $33 million state-of-the-art facility is housed in the University of Nebraska Technology Park. The company will employ nearly 800 people from the Lincoln area.
The University of Nebraska plans to develop Nebraska Innovation Park on a 251-acre site adjacent to its city campus. The Park will provide space for public-private partnerships which will allow private businesses to access faculty research in the development of marketable innovations.
The West Haymarket Redevelopment project will convert 400 acres of blighted and underutilized property on the western edge of Lincoln's Downtown. The proposed redevelopment project involves several components including: a new arena, new hotel, public plazas, retail, office and condominiums.
“More than the community itself, the people who comprise Lincoln and the surrounding area offer Ameritas (and I suspect other companies in the area) a competitive advantage. Simply put, the people of Lincoln are a well-educated and highly productive workforce. There is no question that the foundation of our success has come from the hard work, talent and dedication of Ameritas associates - both active and retired.”
“Lincoln’s economic development team demonstrated the sense of urgency and commitment needed to support Molex’s decision to consolidate our automotive manufacturing operations in Lincoln. We will not hesitate to seek their support on future projects.”
“We have developed real estate in 30 states and Europe and I’ve never had a project go through a city as quickly as this project in Lincoln. Very early, people did what they said they were going to do.”
“Lincoln’s leadership understands our dynamic needs and works to assist in a wide array of efforts ranging from business culture, academic environment to quality of life. These are the keys that allow our company and employees to prosper.”© 2008 Lincoln Partnership for Economic Development | 1135 M Street, Suite 200, Lincoln, NE 68508 402.436.2350 | Designed and Powered byVipaSolutions.com
