Indiana University enhances the Indiana economy

Grants and funding

Since their inception, the IU Pervasive Technology Labs have brought over $4.5 million in out-of-state funding to Indiana. IU's other IT-related research and development efforts have brought $35 million in out-of-state monies to the state since 1998. The Indiana-based Lilly Endowment, Inc. has invested $37 million directly into information technology at Indiana University, through its support of the Pervasive Technology Labs and the Indiana Genomics Initiative. Recent data from the University suggests that each $1 million in funding results, on average, in 43 new jobs for Indiana residents. Thus, the information technology research and development activities at Indiana University since 1998 may mean as many as 3,000 new jobs in the State of Indiana.
