About Us

In 2006, regional civic and business leaders created a public-private partnership that united Northeast Indiana to compete more effectively, as a region, for new investments. 

Today, the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership represents an 11-county region with diverse communities and a population of nearly 800,000. Our region is made up of Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Huntington, Kosciusko, LaGrange, Noble, Steuben, Wabash, Wells, and Whitley counties.

Since its founding, the Regional Partnership has become a model for regionalism and collaboration across Indiana, exceeding the expectations of those original founding members.
