If we believe one thing around here, it's that Indy is BOOMING - booming with growth, events, and the best people in the country. In this episode, we talk to the Indy Chamber about the latest business development news in Indianapolis. Plus Yelp Indy is back and we're previewing their annual Yelp Bazaar.
The Indy Chamber has over 3,000 business memberships and is one of the city's leading organizations that helps to strengthen the business environment, revitalize neighborhoods and enhance the region's workforce.
Michael Huber, the President and CEO of the Indy Chamber, joined the Edge of Indy this week to talk about the growing business climate and we can expect from the Indy Chamber in 2018.
Plus, we learn about some of the upcoming events on the Indy Chamber calendar!
