Business-Friendly Climate

Government and Community
Partnerships

Indianapolis is home to a broad range of companies in terms of both size and scope. Many of the city’s accomplishments, such as Conseco Fieldhouse (home court for the Pacers) and Circle Centre Mall (award-winning downtown mall), were the result of partnerships between the private and public sectors.

Fast Track to Success
Companies get a quick start when establishing a new operation in Indianapolis. Businesses spend less than 60 days to launch a new endeavor due to a business-friendly philosophy and one-stop permitting assistance. Our real estate availability lets you stay on the fast track with a wide selection of available land and existing office and industrial parks.

Competitive Business Environment
Indianapolis supports its corporate community with an incredibly competitive business environment. Local companies enjoy lower workers’ compensation rates than the national average, making it more cost effective to do business here. To give your company that winning edge, Indianapolis also offers incentives like EDGE tax credits, tax abatement and training grants. Indiana has made aggressive changes to our tax structure by eliminating the gross income tax and inventory tax, enacting a 20% venture capital investment credit as well as increasing the research and development tax credit to 10% - one of the highest in the nation!
