WHo we are

NextNV is a Nevada-based think tank committed to shaping forward-looking policies at the nexus of technology, energy, and innovation. As the Silver State rapidly transforms into one of the nation’s leading hubs for economic growth and technological development, NextNV serves as a catalyst—bridging the gap between groundbreaking innovation and effective, future-ready governance.

Our work focuses on the advancement and responsible integration of emerging technologies, including drone systems, artificial intelligence, and next-generation energy solutions. We help guide the frameworks that will define Nevada’s role in the 21st-century economy.

Nevada is uniquely positioned for this transformation. With its abundant natural resources, including one of the largest known deposits of lithium in North America, the state is poised to become a cornerstone of the global clean energy supply chain. At the same time, Nevada's wide-open airspace, investment-friendly environment, and commitment to innovation make it a prime testing ground for drone technologies and AI-driven infrastructure.

NextNV brings together a multidisciplinary network of policy experts, technologists, environmental scientists, and industry leaders to develop actionable, data-driven policies that support sustainable growth. We work hand-in-hand with government agencies, startups, academic institutions, and local communities to ensure that Nevada's tech evolution benefits all Nevadans—economically, environmentally, and equitably.

Whether it’s crafting regulatory frameworks for autonomous systems, advising on ethical AI policy, or supporting the transition to a clean, resilient energy grid, NextNV is at the forefront of Nevada’s innovation economy. Our mission is simple: to make sure progress doesn’t just happen here—it thrives here.
