Rural Futures With Dr. Connie

Janell Anderson Ehrke is Founder and CEO of GROW Nebraska, a non-profit marketing, training and technical assistance resource for Nebraska entrepreneurs. Through their work and Buy Nebraska website, Janell and her team boost the state's economy at a national and global level. Their conferences, upcoming innovation center and grants in areas such as GoogleAdwords allow entrepreneurs to take advantage of today's tools to grow beyond their rural geography. Dr. Connie enjoyed hearing Janell's background, which includes parents who were both entrepreneurs and four siblings who attended the University of Nebraska. Janell's agricultural background led to her attitude: "Get out there and make it happen!" Janell's daughter, Haley, was also a 2018 Rural Futures Institute Student Fellow!
