Join IndyCREW and our local government team of experts as we discuss Boone County’s tremendous growth and the impact on the commercial real estate industry, specifically in Lebanon, Zionsville and Whitestown.  Nestled off I-65, Boone County is situated between Indianapolis and Lafayette and is one of the fastest-growing communities in Indiana.  Abundant utilities, north-south and east-west interstates, and business-friendly government is ensuring businesses have everything needed to be successful.  Boone County has a large and talented workforce, ideal for easy commutes and meeting the needs of complex industries of all kinds.  Communities currently are supporting and attracting a diverse set of industries – specifically information technology, pharmaceuticals, e-commerce, manufacturing, and food and beverage. Leaders within the county are always looking for those opportunities to grow business investment, but also welcoming companies who develop speculative buildings in search of occupants.  Our discussion with local government leaders will look inside various components of this unique county, development project highlights and the commercial real estate industry.  Join us as we learn how Boone County communities have continued to secure positive economic momentum and have positioned themselves for long-term growth and a bright future. 

Our panelists include:  

• Molly Whitehead, Executive Director at Boone County Economic Development Corporation
• Elise Nieshalla, President of the Boone County Council
• Allyson Gutwein, Executive Director at Zionsville Chamber of Commerce
