On Wednesday, Jan. 14, Governor Mike Braun highlighted the surge in Indiana’s life sciences sector, with three major industry expansions that will create more than 1,300 new high‑wage Hoosier jobs.
These expansions further cement Indiana’s position as a national leader in advanced manufacturing, medical device production, and biopharmaceutical innovation.
“Indiana continues to prove that we are the top destination for companies looking to grow,” Gov. Braun said. “These expansions show exactly what happens when you focus on jobs and wages. Companies invest, communities grow, and Hoosiers benefit.”
Under Gov. Braun’s direction, Indiana’s economic development strategy has focused on two priorities: more jobs for Hoosiers and higher wages. The latest life sciences investments demonstrate the strength of that strategy, and Indiana’s growing dominance in one of the world’s most competitive industries.
