Exciting New Partnerships & Our 2025 Theme
This year, we’re teaming up with The Foundry, an organization dedicated to empowering purpose-driven communities. Together, we’ll amplify the voices and missions of local nonprofits, placing them at the heart of our programming.
We’re also partnering with the E.N. Thompson Forum on World Issues, a collaboration between the Cooper Foundation, Lied Center for Performing Arts, and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Since 1988, the Forum has brought diverse perspectives on global and public policy issues to Nebraska, sparking dialogue and promoting understanding - goals closely aligned with Ignite Lincoln’s mission.
Our 2025 Theme:
This year, Ignite Lincoln will explore the growing public health crisis of loneliness and isolation, and the vital role of human connection in improving individual and community well-being.
Stay tuned for more as we shape an event designed to inform, inspire, and ignite change.

Our mission? Everyone speaks.
We believe that public speaking builds confidence in individuals and that events like Ignite build community. Our goal is to make it possible for anyone, anywhere, to learn to present their ideas and their stories.
