About Us

In 2006 a small group of business and civic leaders joined together to support several initiatives important to Lincoln’s future. The overall goals of the initiatives, or pillars, are to strengthen the community’s economic base by fostering entrepreneurship and investment opportunities, increasing opportunities for post college-age citizens, creating jobs, expanding entertainment and recreational opportunities, leveraging UNL’s research and technology mission and encouraging private charitable giving. All of the initiatives are from plans and studies already vetted by the community—the Angelou Economics Report, the Mayor’s Arena Task Force Recommendations, the Downtown Master Plan, the Antelope Valley Project, UNL’s Master Plan, the State Fair Park Plan, and the Lancaster County Event Center Expansion Plan to name a few.

2015 Vision is not another plan, but a call by the private sector to implement many existing plans that have received extensive public input. Now, hundreds have signed on to this same vision to transform Lincoln’s future.
