  • Indianapolis Final Four's $400M Economic Impact and What's at Stake

    Indianapolis Final Four's $400M Economic Impact and What's at Stake
    Apr 5 2026
    Indianapolis is hosting the NCAA Men's Final Four for a record-tying ninth time, and the economic stakes are enormous. Visit Indy estimates $400 million in economic impact from the event, more than the six largest Indianapolis conventions combined generated in a single year. Chris Gahl, executive vice president at Visit Indy, explains how the city is targeting fan bases in Chicago, Detroit, and Champaign to drive tourism beyond ticket holders, and how a 60-to-70 percent convention close rate during major sporting events makes the Final Four one of the city's most powerful sales tools. For the first time, Indianapolis is also hosting national championship games across every NCAA division and the NIT simultaneously. Also covered: Eli Lilly receives FDA approval for a new oral weight loss drug; SpectronRx secures $85 million in new investment to expand its radiopharmaceutical campus near Grissom Air Reserve Base; Purdue University rolls out a mobile audiology van to combat hearing loss among Indiana farmers; a $65 billion industrial campus is proposed for Sullivan in west-central Indiana; Mishawaka-based Butcher's Bounty expands its freeze-dried pet treat business to 40 states; and Sport Graphics, the Indianapolis company behind the iconic JW Marriott bracket display, celebrates 40 years in business. Purdue head coach Matt Painter also weighs in on NIL and the changing college basketball landscape.

    I-70 Tolls, Final Four Economy and Arsenal Tech's Mental Health Win
    Mar 29 2026
    Indiana could soon toll I-70 from border to border, a proposal that would cost passenger vehicles roughly $16 and trucks more than $80 per trip across the state. Danville Duncan, associate professor at Indiana University's O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs, breaks down the fuel tax erosion driving the push for new highway revenue and the real concerns about traffic diverting to smaller roads like State Road 40. Also covered: Indianapolis prepares for its ninth Final Four, with Post Malone headlining the NCAA March Madness Music Festival and the city hosting Division I, II, and III championships alongside the NIT for the first time ever, a combination expected to generate $400 million for the Indiana economy. Toyota is investing $200 million at its Princeton plant to boost Grand Highlander production, and Patrick Industries is rolling out a digital design studio that lets RV buyers visualize their purchase on a life-size virtual screen. Then, the turnaround story at Arsenal Technical High School in Indianapolis. After a winless 2023 season, the football program built back-to-back winning records by adding Mental Resiliency Training, a pilot program led by Dr. Elaine Gilbert of Riley Children's Health and supported by a grant from the Riley Children's Foundation. The program is now expanding to athletes across all Indianapolis Public Schools. Plus, Fort Wayne's Science Central opens a new $3 million planetarium, the region's only public facility of its kind, and IBJ Media's Innovate Indiana series returns for a fifth year with nine stops across the state.
