Ivy Tech Named to Victory Media's 2016 Military Friendly Schools List
Ivy Tech Community College has been designated a 2016 Military Friendly® School by Victory Media, the leader in successfully connecting the military and civilian worlds, and publisher of G.I. Jobs®, STEM JobsSM and Military Spouse. Now in its seventh year, the original, premier Military Friendly® Schools designation provides service members and their families with transparent, data-driven ratings about post-military education and career opportunities.

Work Force Draws NTN Expansion
The president of Columbus-based NTN Driveshaft says Indiana beat out several other locations for its $130 million expansion and more than 500 new jobs. Jim Riggs says the company considered multiple locations in the southeast, but says Indiana's work force was a major deciding factor in choosing the Anderson site.

3 Reasons to Register Your Company with the Indiana Supplier INsight Database
Indiana Supplier INsight is a valuable database tool, and it is an integral part of the effort of Conexus Indiana to promote and support advanced manufacturing and logistics throughout the state. Of the many reasons to ensure your company is in the database, I believe these are the top 3:

1. Get noticed! Conexus Indiana regularly receives requests for supplier listings from various entities like IEDC, OEM's, Tier-1's, etc. You can't get on a list if you're not registered.

2. Invitations to matchmaking events. Last year, we facilitated over 125 supplier matchmaking meetings. Invitations were sent to companies found using Indiana Supplier INsight.

3. Receive notifications of procurement opportunities. This past quarter, there were over 130 procurement opportunities posted to Indiana Supplier INsight. Only companies who register receive notifications.
