Indiana Chamber seeks Community of the Year Nominations

INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Chamber of Commerce is now accepting nominations for the 2021 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.

Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar

“As a state, Indiana has collectively weathered the pandemic storm quite well,” asserts Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. “Some communities, however, have been exceptional so we look forward to reviewing the nominees and identifying one shining locale in particular.”

The award will be presented at the state’s largest annual gathering of business leaders and elected officials, the Indiana Chamber’s 32nd Annual Awards Dinner. The event is presented in partnership with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield on November 9 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 Chamber’s Annual Awards Dinner and are featured in BizVoice®, Indiana’s leading statewide business magazine.

Apply at www.indianachamber.com/community. Entries must be received by June 14.

The last five Community of the Year recipients were Fort Wayne, Plymouth, Jasper, Goshen and Fishers.
