Nominations and applications for the second annual Indiana Companies to Watch awards program, highlighting some of the state’s top privately held companies have opened.
Presented by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, its Small Business Development Center network (SBDC), Purdue University and the Edward Lowe Foundation, Indiana Companies to Watch recognizes privately held Indiana businesses that employ six to 150 full-time employees and have between $750,000 to $100 million in annual revenue or working capital.
“This program spotlights companies who have demonstrated growth and the intent and capacity to keep growing in any industry throughout the state,” said Jeff Heinzmann, IEDC’s state SBDC director. “We want to recognize these companies who are the foundation of Indiana’s entrepreneurial culture.”
Anyone may nominate an eligible business or apply for the awards by completing the application form online at www.Indiana.companiestowatch.org. A panel of judges will review the applications and select the top companies to receive the awards based on past growth, projected success, innovation, technology application and community involvement. Nominations will be accepted through March 27 and applications will be accepted through April 10.
An awards ceremony will be held August 27, 2009 at the Indiana Roof Ballroom, Indianapolis, IN
