The Nebraska Chamber of Commerce and Industry announced Wednesday that Todd Bingham resigned last week. According to a news release, Chamber Board Chair Pat Keenan announced the resignation to the board and Chamber members on Wednesday.

The Chamber selected Bingham as its leader in April 2025 and he started in his role in mid-May. He was previously the President and CEO of the Utah Manufacturers Association.

Bingham replaced Bryan Slone, who served in the role for seven years before stepping down in 2025. He currently works as an attorney at Koley Jessen law firm in Omaha.
