Lincoln man donates $1M to NET drive

Lincoln technology entrepreneur Steve Kiene primed a new phase of an NET fundraising drive Thursday with a $1 million donation.

Kiene is vice president of engineering for Internap Network Services Corp., an Atlanta company, but he and his crew operate in Lincoln at the Terminal Building.

Internap manages, delivers and helps makes online content pay for commercial customers. Kiene also teaches at the Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

His donation launched the public phase of the Inspire Nebraska fundraising campaign for the NET Foundations for Television and Radio.
