Nebraska at Top of Rankings as Place to do Business

July 31, 2018

Nebraska continues to be recognized for its strong economy and business environment as evidenced by numerous rankings by independent organizations. From electrical infrastructure to education to business operating costs and incentives these rankings illustrate the competitive business climate that Nebraska offers the business community.

“Businesses often look at these types of rankings as they evaluate states,” says Mary Plettner, CEcD, NPPD Economic Development Manager, “Nebraska’s competitiveness in these areas are some of the talking points we use when working with prospects.”

Examples of the state comparisons include:
