Indianapolis, Indiana (June 23, 2025) \u2013 Today, Governor Mike Braun announced nine appointments to the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) Board of Directors.<\/p>\n

\u201cI spent my life building a business here in Indiana, and I know that having an entrepreneurial, high-energy team in your corner makes all the difference. These appointments to the IEDC Board embody the Freedom and Opportunity agenda for IEDC: they hail from communities all around our state, bring experience from across the range of Indiana\u2019s key industries, and each of them knows the importance of growing wages and creating job opportunities for Hoosiers because they\u2019ve done it in their own communities.\u201d \u2014 Governor Mike Braun<\/p>\n

The new Board appointees – who bring experience from across the spectrum of Indiana\u2019s economy from agriculture to manufacturing to retail – will join Governor Mike Braun and Commerce Secretary David Adams\u2019 mission to grow wages and build new job opportunities for Hoosiers, as well as spread economic development to all four corners of the state.<\/p>\n
