Inside 2026 Spring Issue

The Spring 2026 issue of the Indiana Business Review marks a special milestone for the Indiana Business Research Center. In March, the IBRC celebrated its centennial birthday, and with this issue, our flagship publication reaches an equally remarkable achievement, 100 years of continuous publication.

To commemorate the occasion, the editors, along with the help of a former IBRC director, take a retrospective look at the IBR throughout the years. In addition, Sara Coers examines the housing affordability challenges in Indianapolis and explores whether new construction can help ease the strain.

As always, we are grateful to you, our readers, for your continued interest and support in this Hoosier historic record. Here's to the next 100 years!
