May 6, 2020 Statement from Marion County Business Leaders: As leaders of Central Indiana business, community and healthcare organizations, we support the difficult decision by Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett to extend until May 15 Marion County’s stay-at-home order in response to COVID-19. Putting public health first, utilizing data-driven approaches, and acting upon guidance from local public health officials, necessitates a different response in densely populated Marion County than in the majority of the rest of the state. Our community’s frontline healthcare heroes have performed inspirationally and admirably in meeting the pandemic challenge. Still, Marion County, with 14% of the state’s population, has seen nearly one-third of all Indiana COVID-19 cases, and suffered nearly one-third of all statewide COVID-19 deaths, with an incidence rate continuing for new cases at nearly three-times the rate elsewhere in the state. And though County patient [...]

INDIANAPOLIS (September 4, 2019) – The Central Indiana Corporate Partnership (CICP) was formed in 1999 and today, 20 years later, it is celebrating the many milestones that have been achieved by strategically bringing together the chief executives of Central Indiana’s prominent corporations, private foundations and universities to positively impact the economy, workforce and quality of life in Central Indiana.
