This evening features Ron Offutt, founder and Chairman Emeritus of R.D. Offutt Company and RDO Equipment Co. What began with a family farming operation in the Red River Valley grew into one of North America’s largest agricultural equipment organizations, built on a commitment to serving growers, investing in people, and thinking for the long term.

About The Never Quitters: A Limited Event Series

Hosted by Emerging Prairie and inspired by board member Howard Dahl's book of the same name, Never Quitters is an annual fall conversation series celebrating the people who bet big on North Dakota. It's a tribute to those who built companies, created jobs, served their communities, took risks, and imagined something bigger for the place they called home.

Each conversation offers an opportunity to learn from the people behind that legacy and invites the next generation to ask an important question: Who is North Dakota's next Never Quitter?
