Indiana businesses looking to update their manufacturing process to better integrate new technology can be eligible for up to $200,000 in grants from the state. The Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) in partnership with Conexus, a division of  the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership (CICP) focusing on manufacturing and logistics businesses within Indiana, has announced a competitive matching grant program called Manufacturing Readiness Grants geared toward manufacturing businesses looking to invest and improve their processes. The program is designed to support businesses that launch initiatives to improve the capacity, efficiency, speed, and/or quality of their processes. This program is a part of a broader COVID-19 response initiative through IEDC called Economic Activity Stabilization & Enhancement (EASE).

If you plan to train new or existing employees this year, you may qualify for up to $100,000 in state grant money. The Indiana Governor’s Office established the Next Level Jobs program to enhance job skills and training for Indiana’s workforce. The Department of Workforce Development administers the program by managing applications, evaluating training programs, approving employer training plans, and executing the reimbursement of approved training.
