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. **Our Mission** Indiana Sports Corp, a not-for-profit organization, was founded in 1979 as the nation's first sports commission.
