IN Pulse 7 - Innovation Series Finale
Indiana’s Health Innovation Engine – Part III: The Series Finale
From 16 Tech to One Health… Now Meet the Next 4
BioCrossroads lit the fuse in 2002.
16 Tech became Indy’s urban core.
One Health turned West Lafayette into a health quadrant.
The engine isn’t stopping—it’s spreading.
Four more university-anchored hotspots are quietly (or not so quietly) pulling in major health systems and hundreds of millions in new capital.
The Next 4 Innovation Hotspots to Watch
The Repeating Playbook
University R&D core
BioCrossroads / Ascend talent pipeline
Health-system capital chasing proximity to discovery
Repeat in four new geographies → decentralized, high-velocity life-sciences growth.
