Not too long after he became the CEO of Elevate Ventures last summer, Christopher Day was having visions of putting Indiana on the map from an innovation standpoint.

“It was time to think much bigger as a state,” the Indiana tech veteran and entrepreneur recalls. Out of that desire, the Rally Innovation Conference was born. The event celebrates cross-sector connections between companies, entrepreneurs, investors and universities from across the globe and features an attention-getting $5 million pitch competition.

In this edition of the IN Chamber podcast, Day dives into what the Rally event is all about and what it means for start-ups, the broader business community and the state. We also catch up on Indiana’s entrepreneurial and venture capital landscapes.
