ABOUT THE LIFT NETWORK

BUILDING LOCALLY, THINKING GLOBALLY

We have been home to Studebaker, Alka-Seltzer, and the Fighting Irish. We gave the world the RV and the seedless watermelon. And while we’re rooted in the past, we’re not mired in it. The LIFT portal is a direct result of a regional economic development strategic plan that aims to underscore and empower the organic spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship baked into our people and make us competitors in the global marketplace.
