00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.970
>>GERRY: HELLO AND WELCOME TO
INSIDE INDIANA BUSINESS.
I'M GERRY DICK.
IN OUR TOP STORY THIS

2
00:00:03.970 --> 00:00:12.612
WEEK...GREENFIELD-BASED ELANCO
ANIMAL HEALTH MAKING A MAJOR
STATEMENT ABOUT ITS FUTURE IN
INDIANA.

3
00:00:12.612 --> 00:00:20.019
AFTER A MULTI-STATE SEARCH, THE
SECOND-LARGEST INDEPENDENT
ANIMAL HEALTH COMPANY UNVEILING
PLANS TO ESTABLISH ITS NEW

4
00:00:20.019 --> 00:00:24.891
GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS IN DOWNTOWN
INDIANAPOLIS...ALL PART OF A
$300 MILLION INVESTMENT TO MAKE
INDIANA ITS BASE OF OPERATIONS.

5
00:00:24.891 --> 00:00:31.431
THE GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS IS
ENVISIONED AS A 45-ACRE CAMPUS
ALONG THE WHITE RIVER IN
DOWNTOWN INDIANAPOLIS AT THE

6
00:00:31.431 --> 00:00:36.870
FORMER GM STAMPING PLANT SITE,
ONE OF THE MOST ATTRACTIVE
UNDEVELOPED SITES IN THE
MIDWEST.

7
00:00:36.870 --> 00:00:44.444
AN EXPANDED WHITE RIVER STATE
PARK AND MULTI-USE DEVELOPMENT
ARE ENVISIONED AT A SITE THAT
WOULD BE CONNECTED TO THE

8
00:00:44.444 --> 00:00:46.513
DOWNTOWN MILE SQUARE BY TWO NEW
BRIDGES.
ELANCO WILL ALSO MAINTAIN
MANUFACTURING FACILITIES IN

9
00:00:46.513 --> 00:00:51.518
CLINTON, INDIANAPOLIS AND TERRE
HAUTE AND CENTER ITS RESEARCH
AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES IN
INDIANA.

10
00:00:51.518 --> 00:01:02.362
IN ALL, ELANCO SAYS THE MASSIVE
INVESTMENT WILL RETAIN MORE THAN
1,600 JOBS AND CREATE MORE THAN
570 JOBS OVER THE NEXT DECADE.

11
00:01:02.362 --> 00:01:05.965
WITH MORE ON THIS BLOCKBUSTER
DEAL AND ITS POTENTIAL IMPACT,
I'M PLEASED TO BE JOINED BY
INDIANA SECRETARY OF COMMERCE

12
00:01:05.965 --> 00:01:17.510
JIM SCHELLINGER.
>> GOOD TO BE WITH YOU.
>> AGAIN I SAY A BLOCKBUSTER
DEAL IT TRULY IS ON A NUMBER OF

13
00:01:17.510 --> 00:01:25.618
FRONTS AND I THINK FIRST OFF
THIS WAS A MULTISTATE, IF YOU
WILL, COMPETITION.
THEY LOOKED AT A NUMBER OF

14
00:01:25.618 --> 00:01:31.724
LOCATIONS KANSAS CITY AMONG THEM
TO PUT THIS MASSIVE INVESTMENT
AND CHOSE INDIANA AND
INDIANAPOLIS.

15
00:01:31.724 --> 00:01:39.065
>> WE COULD NOT BE MORE EXCITED
FOR JEFF SIMMONS AND THE TEAM.
WE WENT THROUGH QUITE A
COMPETITION AND THEY HAVE A

16
00:01:39.065 --> 00:01:48.441
FACILITY THEY ACQUIRED IN AN
ACQUISITION DOWN IN KANSAS CITY
REFERRED TO AS THE ANIMAL HEALTH
CORIDOR OF THE WORLD AND WE

17
00:01:48.441 --> 00:01:56.015
THINK THIS ANNOUNCEMENT PUTS
INDIANA AND INDIANAPOLIS AS THE
EPICENTER OF ANIMAL HEALTH SO WE
ARE VERY PROUD TO ANNOUNCE US

18
00:01:56.015 --> 00:02:04.157
TODAY.
>> 300 MILLION-DOLLAR INVESTMENT
AND THE CENTERPIECE AND CAMPUS
REALLY IN THE FORMER STAMPING

19
00:02:04.157 --> 00:02:11.197
PLANT RIGHT ALONG THE BANKS OF
THE WHITE RIVER.
GIVE US AN IDEA OF WHAT THIS
SITE CAN AND WILL BECOME.

20
00:02:11.197 --> 00:02:19.172
IT WILL BE HOME TO WELL OVER
1,000 EMPLOYEES.
>> CLOSER TO 1600 AND IT'S AN
AMAZING SITE.

21
00:02:19.172 --> 00:02:25.478
YOU MENTIONED ONE OF THE
GREATEST SITES IN THE MIDWEST.
WE THINK IT'S ONE OF THE
GREATEST IN THE NATION TO HAVE

22
00:02:25.478 --> 00:02:32.385
90 PLUS ACRES IN THE HEART OF A
MAJOR CITY.
THE 12TH LARGEST IN THE COUNTRY
AND COULD NOT BE HAPPIER.

23
00:02:32.385 --> 00:02:43.196
IT WILL BE A DRAMATIC CHANGE AND
ENLIVEN THAT SECTOR AND THE
MAYOR HAS BEEN GREAT TO WORK
WITH AS HAS THOMAS COOK THE

24
00:02:43.196 --> 00:02:48.768
DEPUTY MAYOR EXEMPLARY AND WITH
GOVERNOR HOLCOMB'S LEADERSHIP
AND SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE TODD
HOUSTON AND THE SENATE PRO TEM

25
00:02:48.768 --> 00:02:56.776
THEY'VE BEEN GREAT TO WORK WITH
AND ALL THROUGH THIS ENTIRE
PROCESS BUT THE SITE IS
MAGNIFICENT AND WE EXPAND THE

26
00:02:56.776 --> 00:03:04.984
PARK ON THE EAST BANK OF THE
WEST SIDE AND WE WILL EXPAND
ESSENTIALLY WE ARE EXPANDING
DOWNTOWN ACROSS THE RIVER, WHICH

27
00:03:04.984 --> 00:03:12.725
IS A BIG DEAL AND WHAT BETTER
PLACE TO HAVE THEM THE SECOND
LARGEST ANIMAL HELP WITH THE
FIRST AND NOT TOO LONG SOUTH OF

28
00:03:12.725 --> 00:03:20.667
THE ZOO.
IT WAS A GREAT, GREAT FIT.
>> TRANSFORMATIONAL IS USED A
LOT IN THIS CONTEXT AND IT'S

29
00:03:20.667 --> 00:03:28.341
APPROPRIATE BECAUSE IT CAN BE
TRANSFORMATIONAL PROJECT SO A
BIG IMPACT, BUT YOU SPREAD
AROUND THE STATE AND LOOK AT

30
00:03:28.341 --> 00:03:36.783
CLINTON, FOR EXAMPLE, IN TERRE
HAUTE IN VIGO AND INDIANAPOLIS
AND MANUFACTURING FACILITIES
GETTING ATTENTION AS PART OF THE

31
00:03:36.783 --> 00:03:43.189
INVESTMENT.
>> I TELL YOU THE IMPORTANCE
CANNOT BE OVERSTATED AND I WANT
TO TALK ABOUT GREENFIELD BECAUSE

32
00:03:43.189 --> 00:03:50.396
THE MAYOR HAS BEEN GREAT TO WORK
WITH OUT THERE.
WE AT IDC HAVE A HUGE COMMITMENT
TO THE MAYOR ABOUT BACKFILLING

33
00:03:50.396 --> 00:03:59.339
THE SITE AND MAKING SURE WE HAVE
JOBS OUT THERE IN INDIANA AND
VERY IMPORTANT, BUT WE COMPETED
ON A NATIONAL SCALE AND A

34
00:03:59.339 --> 00:04:06.713
MULTISTATE COMPETITION FOR THE
HEADQUARTERS AND BEING IN AN
URBAN ENVIRONMENT WAS THE TWO
TOP REQUIREMENTS.

35
00:04:06.713 --> 00:04:15.388
THE TOP THINGS AND WE MET THE
BILL VERY WELL IT WAS A STIFF
COMPETITION AND IT WAS VERY
VIGOROUS SO WE ARE VERY PROUD TO

36
00:04:15.388 --> 00:04:23.429
HAVE ONE THAT COMPETITION.
>> YOU TALK ABOUT A LINK GO ALL
IN ON INDIANA AND THIS BEING A
BIG PART ABOUT IN THE --

37
00:04:23.429 --> 00:04:28.901
INNOVATION.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
ACTIVITIES THAT THEY SEE NOT
ONLY TODAY BUT GOING FORWARD

38
00:04:28.901 --> 00:04:37.677
LOOKS TO BE CENTERED IN INDIANA.
>> THAT'S WHAT WE ARE HOPEFUL
FOR AND THAT'S WHAT WE'VE TALKED
ABOUT IN WE BELIEVE THAT WILL

39
00:04:37.677 --> 00:04:44.183
HAPPEN IN ON ENSURING SOME R&D
AND THESE ARE HIGH PAYING JOBS
AND THESE ARE EXTREMELY HIGH
PAYING JOBS.

40
00:04:44.183 --> 00:04:52.558
PROBABLY SOME OF THE HIGHEST IN
OUR STATE SO IT'S GOING TO
REALLY INCREASE PER CAPITA
INCOME OF OUR STATE AND BETTER

41
00:04:52.558 --> 00:05:00.166
HOOSIERS LIVES AND THAT'S WHAT
THE GOVERNOR IS FOCUSED ON.
YOU HEARD TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
PEOPLE KEPT PEOPLE KEPT PEOPLE.

42
00:05:00.166 --> 00:05:08.274
HIS LEADERSHIP ON THIS CANNOT BE
OVERSTATED.
HE PUT PERSONAL INPUT FROM DAY
ONE AND HE'S BEEN INVOLVED EVERY

43
00:05:08.274 --> 00:05:14.914
SINGLE STEP ALONG THE WAY AND
I'M GRATEFUL THAT WE HAVE A
GOVERNOR THAT SUPPORTS OUR
EFFORTS LIKE GOV. ERIC HOLCOMB.

44
00:05:14.914 --> 00:05:24.390
>> 30 SECONDS BUT AS YOU LOOK AT
THE IMPACTED HAS WHEN YOU HAVE A
MAJOR DOWNTOWN CORPORATE CAMPUS
LOOKING OVER THE SKY LINE OF

45
00:05:24.390 --> 00:05:30.530
INDIANAPOLIS AND USE THAT AS A
MAGNET TO ATTRACT ADDITIONAL
INVESTMENT WHETHER AN
AGBIOSCIENCES OR OTHER

46
00:05:30.530 --> 00:05:38.171
INDUSTRIES IS THERE AN IMPACT
THERE?
>> I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT THAT UP
BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT HAS BEEN

47
00:05:38.171 --> 00:05:44.410
INSTRUMENTAL IN PURDUE
UNIVERSITY THE SIXTH LARGEST
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE IN THE
WORLD SO VERY INVOLVED AND THERE

48
00:05:44.410 --> 00:05:53.553
WILL BE A PURDUE PRESENCE ON THE
SITE AND A SIGNIFICANT PRESENCE
ON CAMPUS.
