Regional Center Life Sciences Forum   Forum Resources
The first Regional Center Plan forum was designed to integrate the Central Indiana Life Sciences Initiative with the Regional Center Plan. The Life Sciences Initiative is an initiative of Mayor Bart Peterson to market and develop the economic future of the city and region. A major physical component of the initiative is a life sciences district Downtown to build off of the presence of existing research and health industry leaders like IUPUI, IU Medical School, Clarian Health, and Eli Lilly and Company. Because of the potentially profound impact on all aspects of Downtown life, the Regional Center Plan sponsored a public forum to ensure all plan committees and the greater public had an opportunity to integrate Life Science plans into their work.

The forum, held March 18, 2003 in the Artsgarden, drew about 150 people. At the forum, Life Science Initiative planners presented their ideas for the Northwest Quadrant of Downtown.
