The Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) was founded in 2005 and is charged with growing the state economy, driving economic development, helping businesses launch, grow and locate in the state. Led by Secretary of Commerce Bradley B. Chambers and governed by a 14-member board chaired by Governor Eric J.

In 2022, the IEDC's strategic initiatives delivered:[1]

When Mitch Daniels was elected the 49th Governor of Indiana in 2004, he stated his number one priority was job creation.[2] To achieve that goal, he created the quasi-public Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC), became chairman of its board, and ordered it to “act at the speed of business, not the speed of government” to attract new jobs.
