Central Indiana is carving its path as the Silicon Valley of the Midwest. On this week’s episode, we explore the major strides being made at IU Indianapolis, which recently earned an R1 research designation from the Carnegie Foundation. IU President Pam Whitten shares how this achievement will elevate Indiana’s tech scene and transform the 16 Tech Innovation District into a national biosciences hub.

In northeast Indiana, we dive into the potential impact of tariffs on local businesses with insights from Fort Wayne-based Do it Best. Plus, Winchester, Indiana, celebrates the 30th anniversary of the cult classic Now and Then—a film with deep local ties.

We’ll also introduce you to the family behind Crew Carwash, a Fort Wayne-born business that revolutionized the carwash industry and became one of the best places to work in the country.

Other highlights include:

  • A closer look at the Orr Fellowship and how it’s keeping top talent in Indiana.
    The construction of a new pedestrian bridge at 16 Tech that promises to connect communities and innovation.
    The latest updates from Indiana’s business scene, including new residential developments, partnerships, and big wins for the region.

Join Gerry Dick and the Inside INdiana Business team for these stories and more from Indiana’s business news leader.
