Governor Holcomb touted Indiana’s position to make major investments in communities on Monday.

The governor said that Indiana is “uniquely positioned” to make transformational investments in communities that have the chance to influence economic and population growth for years to come.

Holcomb says the Indiana Regional Economic Acceleration and Development Initiative, or READI, will “lead the nation, encourage regional collaboration, and equip regions with resources for strategic investments in quality of place and innovation.”

Holcomb announced the READI idea during his State of the State address in January. $500 million will be dedicated to promote strategic investments around the state that would likely attract another $2 billion in Indiana investment.
