What We Do
Building a Sports Community
For more than 45 years Indiana Sports Corp has been a leading civic organization advancing our community through sports. Indiana Sports Corp has played host to more than 500 national and international sporting events. These sporting events have led to over $5 billion in direct spending in our community over that time period. Indiana Sports Corp helped elevate the city of Indianapolis from India-a-no-place to the “City Where Champions are Crowned.” Indiana Sports Corp has positively impacted the lives of hundreds of thousands of our citizens, especially our most precious citizens, our children. The Indiana Sports Corp has been and will continue to be a bedrock civic organization upon which the city of Indianapolis and the state of Indiana can continue to grow and flourish.

Our Game Plan
We Collaborate
Once we’ve been awarded an event by the rights holder, we partner with city, state, community organizations, and volunteer leaders to assist our partners with planning operations, marketing, communications, sales, engagement, and legacy initiatives for the event.
We Execute
Our staff, Local Organizing Committee (LOC), and volunteers work alongside our rights holders to execute the entire event from start to finish. Our hotels and restaurants deliver first-class Hoosier hospitality, and we ensure our visitors and residents have the best experience possible.
We Impact
An event can contribute upwards of $10-$300 million in economic impact and earned media impact, further propelling our reputation as a top host for sporting events. In addition, we find ways to leave a lasting legacy through long-term community initiatives statewide.
