The Greater Indianapolis Progress Committee exists to provide a non-partisan forum in which leaders of the public and private sectors of Indianapolis can work as partners to study, discuss and address issues of concern and areas of opportunity which affect the progress of the city. Since 1965, the Greater Indianapolis Progress Committee (GIPC) has convened representatives from all sectors of the community to address the most significant issues of concern and areas for opportunity related to the progress of the City of Indianapolis. Driven by business and civic leaders, GIPC represents the bipartisan alliance that is a continuing example of the public-private partnership in Indianapolis. Its diverse Board of Directors, which makes up GIPC’s membership, collaborates with local government and other organizations that have played a vital role in the city’s many successes.
