When people think about cyberattacks, it’s easy to imagine headlines involving big-name corporations with massive IT budgets. But here’s the truth: cybercriminals aren’t just going after the giants, they’re going after businesses like yours. In fact, small and mid-sized businesses are some of the most frequent targets. Why? Because they’re often the most vulnerable.
There’s no question AI is here, and it’s not going anywhere. But instead of fearing a robot uprising, broadband marketers should be embracing what AI actually is: a ridiculously powerful tool to help us work smarter, not harder.

Workforce recruitment and retention challenges are not isolated to any single community in Kansas; they are a widespread concern across Western Kansas. Employers in every economic sector are struggling to attract qualified applicants, and even more critically, to retain the talent they already have.
Nex-Tech is committed to innovation, growth, and addressing the unique challenges of serving rural communities.
In 2023, Nex-Tech was awarded over $2.2 million through the Kansas Capital Project Funds (CPF) Broadband Infrastructure Program to bring broadband access to one of the most underserved regions in Kansas: a 99% unserved area in rural Saline County. Nex-Tech matched this amount, contributing an additional $2,293,000 to the project. Thanks to this vital funding, Nex-Tech was able to construct the necessary infrastructure to deliver high-speed fiber broadband to this rural community, a transformative step forward for both residents and businesses.
The need for high-speed broadband in rural northwest Kansas has never been greater, and our mission of connecting families, businesses, and communities has never been clearer. These all came to life recently in the towns of Oberlin, KS, and Herndon, KS. We had customer sign-up events in both towns, where we invited residents to dinner, answered their questions, and signed them up to our fiber network.
