Launch Terre Haute is expanding its services in the Wabash Valley. The coworking space says it has entered into an agreement with the city of Sullivan to bring its programming to the area in an effort to grow the entrepreneurial and innovation community.

The organization says the expansion is part of a strategy to retain and attract residents to the area.

"We look forward to expanding our regional entrepreneurial eco-system into Sullivan," said Shelley Klingerman, executive director of Launch Terre Haute.  "The more communities work together, the more robust the eco-system becomes by connecting resources and leveraging local assets. 

Last month, Launch Terre Haute received a $60,000 grant from the Indiana Economic Development Corp. to host programming focusing on high school career development, coding programs, community innovation and a "Launch and Learn" educational series. The coworking space says new programming will kick off in late spring and early summer in both communities.
