As conversations swirl around the state about the need for Nebraska to attract and retain more people, a Dec. 1 OpenSky webinar will feature a discussion about the factors that influence the location decisions of working-age Nebraskans.
The webinar, which starts at 10 a.m., will feature a conversation with:
- Kyle Arganbright, Mayor of Valentine and co-founder and executive vice president of Sandhills State Bank and co-founder of Bolo Beer Co.;
- Dr. Shirley Vargas, a senior administrator in the Nebraska Department of Education;
- Liz Codina, a Community Investment Officer with the Peter Kiewit Foundation; and
- Pamela Hitchens, a physician recruiter with Nebraska Medicine.
Arganbright, Vargas and Codina will discuss what influences their location decisions and Hitchens will discuss what helps and challenges her in her effort to recruit people to Nebraska. Sen. Eliot Bostar, who represents District 29 in Lincoln, will moderate the discussion.
