Nick Vehr

CEO

You can trust him with your business …

If Nick ever needs a personal slogan, a good one would be, “I’m open!” Whether catching passes as a Notre Dame football player (including from Joe Montana) or tackling any personal or professional challenge with a “We can do this!” enthusiasm, he’s open.

That game attitude informs every project he takes on — and he’s taken on countless complex ones, including founding Vehr Communications in 2007, serving as managing director for the massive World Choir Games and founding Cincinnati 2012, Inc. to pursue designation for Cincinnati as a “U.S. Olympic Bid City.” Thanks to his varied background, from his past as an elected member of Cincinnati City Council to his service as chair of the Cincinnati USA Convention & Visitors Bureau, the Economics Center at the University of Cincinnati and St. Xavier High School, Nick understands complex issues. Which is why anytime things hit the fan for a company, organization or local influencer, they call Nick. 

… and you’ll want to hang out with him, too.

Nick loves an adventure, including traveling the world from China to Dubai. Heck, rumor has it he once even wrestled a Texas longhorn … not the college football player, the 2,000-pound beast. When it comes to having fun, he’s open.
