Justin Kallhoff of Lincoln-based Infogressive was chosen to participate in a nationally recognized year-long Fellowship designed to accelerate the growth of high-performance entrepreneurs.
Lincoln (January 21, 2016) — The Pipeline Entrepreneurial Fellowship program has announced that Justin Kallhoff, [former] CEO of Infogressive, Lincoln, NE, will join the 2016 Class of Entrepreneurial Fellows.
Pipeline is an exclusive community of high-potential entrepreneurial leaders building high-growth companies throughout the Midwest Region. Each year, approximately a dozen new Fellows representing the Region’s top entrepreneurial companies are invited to join Pipeline after an extensive selection process.
New Fellows from Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri participate in a unique and rigorous year-long business leadership development program focused on accelerating the growth of their companies. Pipeline blends workshop modules, advice from national experts and a deepening of the relationships among the Pipeline Members.
“I cannot explain in words how honored and humbled I am to be chosen for such an amazing program,” said Justin Kallhoff, founder of Infogressive, Inc. “I am thrilled to be joining a family of people that have a proven ability to succeed. Infogressive has provided me with many amazing opportunities in nine years, but joining pipeline is a new high for me personally and professionally. I can’t wait to learn from so many great people!”
After extensive experience in the cybersecurity industry, Justin founded Infogressive, Inc. in 2006 as a way to bring world-class security technologies to companies of any size. From Penetration Testing to Managed Security Services, Infogressive offers complete cybersecurity solutions, protecting their clients’ data and keeping them out of the headlines. With a solid history of growth, both Justin and the Infogressive team are excited to take the company to the next level alongside both Pipeline and the rapidly expanding cybersecurity industry.
Pipeline’s entrepreneurs do not just “learn about business.” The aim is to undergo a life altering experience that also changes the direction and trajectory of their company and connects them to lifelong friends and allies.
In the process, Pipeline entrepreneurs recognize the power of the network and remain engaged as they start new companies, enter even higher growth issues, become investors and continue as leaders in Pipeline and in their communities.
“This tenth class reflects what Pipeline is all about – diverse industries, diverse entrepreneurs, three different states – and one compelling drive to succeed together,” said Joni Cobb, Pipeline’s Founding CEO. “They are joining Pipeline at such a remarkable time as this year will certainly full of excitement, opportunity and expanded global networks. We can’t wait to get started.”
Pipeline announced its annual entrepreneurial awards, including the Innovator of the Yearaward, at its sold out annual Innovator of the Year (IOTY) event at The Midland in Kansas City. Over 600 from Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska – and other parts of the nation – gathered to celebrate regional entrepreneurship and recognize entrepreneurial growth and contributions.
Infogressive was founded upon a single focus: Information Security. After almost ten years in business, Infogressive has helped financial, healthcare, retail and government entities secure their networks and protect their data. By continually hiring and training elite engineering talent, Infogressive is able to stay on top of emerging threats so their clients can focus on their business and maintain industry compliance. Comprehensive solutions include Managed Security Services, Penetration Testing, Risk Assessments, and training, among many other services.
In its tenth year, Pipeline has now selected over 100 entrepreneurs to join its exclusive community of high-potential entrepreneurial leaders building high-growth companies throughout the Midwest region. Pipeline’s class of Fellows represents high growth entrepreneurs in Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri. New members participate in a unique and rigorous year-long business leadership development program that blends workshop modules, advice from national experts and a deepening of the relationships among new and current Pipeline members. As keystones of the regional business environment, Pipeline members are creating jobs, investing in their businesses and communities and mentoring the next-generation of business leaders.
