Northwest Indiana Forum

Northwest Indiana leaders hope to see ongoing opportunities from the CHIPS and Science Act. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) discussed the act during the Northwest Indiana Forum's Ignite the Region luncheon Tuesday.

The Northwest Indiana Forum is preparing the list of projects to get funding from the second phase of the state's READI program. READI 2.0 is set to bring in $45 million to the Region and attract about $2 billion in investment.

"We've got to secure the southern border, but we can't use that as an excuse not to reform our highly-dysfunctional legal immigration system," Sen. Young told Northwest Indiana Forum President & CEO Heather Ennis.

With the Valpo Sports & Recreation Campus on hold, funding is being freed up for improvements downtown.

No region of the state is more poised for accelerated growth than Northwest Indiana, according to Governor Eric Holcomb.

Three Northwest Indiana READI projects are ready to move forward. The Northwest Indiana Forum secured $50 million for 34 projects through the state's Regional Economic Acceleration and Development Initiative. Now, the forum says the first three have met all the necessary requirements and are ready to receive the funding.

Valparaiso is moving ahead with efforts to get READI funds for its new 248-acre park. The board of works last week agreed to let city development director George Douglas submit the necessary grant paperwork to the Northwest Indiana Forum.
