The Indiana Economic Development Corporation is committed to attracting and supporting new business investment, creating new jobs for Hoosiers, and furthering our legacy as one of the top states in the nation for business.

  • We will aggressively pursue every opportunity that represents a promise for Hoosier jobs, and will compete locally and at a state level to win these opportunities.
  • We will attempt to match the interests of new clients and the local community, creating business plans that work for all parties concerned
  • We will continue to seek opportunities to attract new business and grow our local companies at home, and continue to improve the economy for the state of Indiana

Our work is far from done and every day, for Hoosiers across the state, we must and will deliver the message, the resources and the support to bring more new business to Indiana.
