(INDIANAPOLIS) — Attention mayors and local officials: It’s your time to tout all the great things happening in your areas. Right now, the Indiana Chamber of Commerce is accepting nominations for the 2023 NextEra Energy Resources Community of the Year Award.
This annual honor goes to a deserving Hoosier community for significant contributions to its local business climate and overall image during the past year.
“It will be exciting to once again honor a community that’s taking charge in promoting prosperity and enhancing the quality of life of its residents,” says Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. “I’m always amazed to see the different strategies used, many of which can be replicated by others.”
The award will be presented at the Indiana Chamber’s 34th Annual Awards Dinner – the state’s largest yearly gathering of business leaders and elected officials. The event will be presented in partnership with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield on November 14 in downtown Indianapolis. The winning community will be announced in late summer or early fall.
Communities selected for the honor receive a pre-event press conference, recognition and a video tribute at the Indiana Chamber dinner and are featured in a cover story for BizVoice®, Indiana’s leading statewide business magazine.
Cities can apply at www.indianachamber.com/community. All entries must be received by June 2.
The previous five Indiana Chamber Community of the Year recipients are Columbus, Greater Lafayette, Fort Wayne, Plymouth and Jasper.
