GE Additive and the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) formed a public-private partnership (PPP) designed to further Indiana’s economic growth by implementing GE’s Binder Jet beta program in the state’s manufacturing sector. Indiana, long considered a Republican stronghold, has a manufacturing sector that produced 27.67% of Indiana’s gross domestic product in 2019. The IEDC, moreover, boasts that the state has the highest number of pass-through highways in any state; Indiana has some of the highest large freight railroads in the United States; FedEx’s second-largest global air hub is based in Indianapolis. These advantages make Indiana a welcome hub for additive manufacturing.
