You are on the list. First edition arrives Tuesday at 10 AM ET.
Three sections.
No filler.
Each edition follows the same structure so you know exactly where to look.
The Big One
The single most important AI story of the week for Indiana leaders. What happened, what it means for your organization, and what to do about it.
Also Worth Knowing
Two or three quick hits with links. Podcast episodes, published articles, institutional reports from CICP, TechPoint, and the Indiana Chamber worth reading.
Indiana Watch
One Indiana-specific item. Legislation from the AI Law Tracker, a local company move, a grant opportunity, or an event worth attending.
Indiana ranks 35th
in business AI adoption.
AI job postings in Indiana are up 440% since 2023. Fifteen billion dollars in AI data center investment landed in 2024. But 56% of companies report zero AI ROI, and only 5% of organizations train at scale. The gap between willingness and action is enormous. LaunchReady Indiana exists to close it.
