Celebrating America’s 250th and
Nex-Tech’s 75th Anniversary
Connecting Communities. Driving Innovation. Building the Future.Â
As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Nex-Tech is proud to share its story as part of the national America 250 campaign, with content distributed through USA TODAY’s digital platform. The campaign highlights organizations helping shape the future of communities across the nation and features Nex-Tech’s 75-year journey of innovation, connectivity, and service. What began in 1951 as a rural telecommunications cooperative has evolved into a diversified technology company serving customers across Kansas and throughout the United States. Over the past 75 years, our commitment has remained the same: helping people, businesses, and communities stay connected and prepared for what’s next. Â
