Coolest Thing Made in Indiana Competition Honors Manufacturing Tradition
Businesses can register now to enter the Coolest Thing Made in Indiana competition.
Indiana Chamber president and CEO Keven Brinegar said the competition is a way to celebrate the state’s long manufacturing history.
“It ties in very well with our manufacturing heritage and the fact that Indiana is the most manufacturing intensive state in the country and there’s a lot to showcase,” Brinegar said.
To participate, a company does not need to be headquartered in Indiana, but the product entered must be manufactured in the state. Companies are limited to having one product nominated.
