How We Keep Entrepreneurship Events Free for Everyone
At Nest:Space, we believe entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone — regardless of where they're starting from. That's why we offer all of our events, workshops, and community sessions completely free to attendees.
Whether it's a business spotlight, a Lunch & Learn, or a conversation with local experts, we're committed to creating opportunities for people to learn, grow, and connect. No paywalls. No exclusivity. Just an open door for anyone who's curious, ambitious, or building something of their own.
“Access shouldn’t be a barrier to growth. If you have the drive, we want to help open the door.”
— Chais Meyer (Co-Owner of Nest:Space™)
How We Make It Work
At Nest:Space, we believe everyone should have access to learning, connection, and the tools to grow — without cost being a barrier.
Thanks to generous support from local sponsors and partners, we're able to offer all of our events completely free. These organizations and individuals believe in the power of entrepreneurship to strengthen the Kearney community, and they help us turn that belief into action.
When you attend a Nest:Space event and enjoy free food, drinks, or hands-on learning, it’s because someone stepped in to make it possible — not for recognition, but because they care about helping others build something meaningful.
How You Can Contribute

Everything we do at Nest:Space is rooted in the idea that entrepreneurship grows stronger when it's nurtured in community. If you've ever learned something at one of our events, met someone new, or left inspired — that's what we're here for!
