Programs and Initiatives

Our programs and initiatives offer business support and expertise to companies that are investing and creating jobs in Indiana. We’re working to improve our quality of place, infrastructure, available development sites and regulatory assistance to build economic strength and opportunity that grows and attracts new business and talent.

From decreasing permitting time, to streamlining application processes, pre-certifying shovel-ready sites and increasing access to training and skills, we’re focused on creating new high-wage, high-skill opportunities for the next generation of Hoosiers.  We place special emphasis on the automotive, life sciences, energy, and national security industry sectors, and support companies involved in advanced manufacturing, logistics, information technology and research and development.

Indiana also provides financial assistance to qualified high-tech firms and small businesses and offers a variety of programs to support new business start-ups and business expansion and growth.
