resources
The Martin County Alliance is dedicated to the growth of its communities and works closely with regional assets to provide businesses and employees help to ensure that our county is taking advantage of the support that is offered, both locally and state-wide. Our resources are here to make your business goals a reality.
Business Retention and Expansion Program
Martin County Alliance is participating in a Business Retention and Expansion Program from Radius Indiana that proactively reaches out to business citizens in our county to discover opportunities to assist. The BRE program gathers information, builds strong relationships with the businesses that already have a footprint in the local community, and develops business assistance opportunities for existing businesses.
Local businesses receive outreach from a Radius-designated contact person who works with the local economic development office to identify solutions to needs that local companies identify through telephone and email communications.
Please contact our office to learn more about this program.
westgate academy
The WestGate Academy Conferencing & Training Center is the crown jewel of the WestGate@Crane Technology Park. This spacious, state-of-the-art facility opened its doors in 2012, and since has been serving the needs of NSA Crane and the surrounding communities. The facility supports work-related meetings, community-based events, and educational opportunities with focus upon workforce education, government and military contract support, Tech Transfer and incubation, and conferencing. Its largest room encompasses more than 14,000 square feet of space.
Radius Indiana
Radius Indiana is a regional economic development organization that serves as a regional catalyst for government, business, and academic collaboration to market and promote its eight-county region (Crawford, Daviess, Dubois, Lawrence, Martin, Orange and Washington Counties) as a highly competitive, vibrant ecosystem with an increasingly attractive quality of life.
Radius is available as a resource and partner to the Martin County Alliance and is invested in the success of our community.
choose southern indiana
Choose Southern Indiana is a talent attraction program that offers a $5,000 relocation incentive to qualified out-of-state individuals or families who relocate to several of our region’s communities, including Martin County.
spark downtown
Spark Downtown aims to ignite the revitalization of the downtowns in the Radius region, providing support to restore retail businesses and residential growth in community cores. The City of Loogootee is currently participating in the third year of the program.
In 2023, Radius Indiana introduced the Spark Downtown Facade Program. Radius secured funding from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for businesses in participating Spark Downtown communities to help them make improvements to almost any facade project that is visible from the road. Radius realized that its communities often lack the necessary funding to take on projects to help revitalize their downtown areas. Building owners in participating Spark Downtown communities are eligible to apply for 1% interest loans and must receive committee approval and be able to secure 50 percent matching funds. To learn more about the Spark Downtown Facade Loan or apply, please contact the Radius Indiana office at 812-277-9778.
If you are interested in learning more about this program, we are happy to talk with you! We would be happy to work with you to revitalize downtown Loogootee.
