Indianapolis Business Acceleration Team

Are you considering opening a storefront or expanding your location in Indianapolis? Don’t navigate the regulatory and permitting waters alone – leverage the knowledge of our Business Acceleration Team to potentially save you time and money.

Led by the Indy Chamber, the Business Acceleration Team works one-on-one with business owners to ensure project plans are developed in accordance to the parameters set by:

• Department of Metropolitan Development (DMD)
• Department of Code Enforcement (DCE)
• Citizens Energy Group
• Indianapolis Power & Light

The Business Acceleration Team consists of representatives from each of these agencies and is designed to flag potential challenges businesses may face when remodeling, expanding or building. Business owners could potentially save time and money due to streamlined approvals and earlier review of project plans.
