The Midlands Business Journal is excited to host a Golden Jubilee in celebration of its 50th Anniversary on Tuesday, May 5th, 2026, at the Durham Museum.

Join us as we celebrate 50 years of business leadership, innovation, and impact in the Midlands. Our Golden Jubilee honors the people who have shaped our region — the Legends, Leaders & Legacy Makers who built the past, power the present, and inspire the future.

Gather with the region’s top business minds for a night of recognition, connection, and inspiration at The Durham Museum — and be part of the next chapter of the Midlands business story.

A portion of all tickets sold will go directly to the Robert G. Hoig Scholarship, established through the University of Nebraska Foundation, supporting students in the entrepreneurship program who are building the next generation of Omaha businesses and business leaders.
