This week on Inside Indiana Business with Gerry Dick, we take you high above the Indiana State Fair to explore how this summer tradition contributes far beyond lemon shakeups and livestock. With 400+ events hosted annually and $330 million in statewide economic impact, the fairgrounds have become a year-round hub for sports, tourism, and business. Executive Director Cindy Hoye shares how the campus is evolving through major renovations and small business partnerships.
