The Hub 127, a new co-working space in downtown Princeton, Indiana officially opens its doors on June 27 with a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house from 4:00-6:00 p.m. The 6,700 sq. ft. space is managed by the Gibson County Economic Development Corporation (GCEDC) and is one of 18 projects from the Regional Cities Initiative plan for Indiana’s Great Southwest. The Hub 127 which is a talent attraction amenity for Gibson County, offers singular workspaces, board and conference rooms, will cost approximately $495,000 with $99,000 being paid from Regional Cities funding.
“The Hub 127 co-working space is a transformational project for Gibson County and its surrounding areas, combining the best elements of the Regional Cities Initiative and southwest Indiana’s growing entrepreneurial culture,” said Elaine Bedel, president of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation. “By adding a collaborative space for local entrepreneurs to work together, network and foster innovative ideas, the region is gaining a major amenity that will not only attract and retain talent, but also contribute to the growth and vibrancy of downtown Princeton.”
“The Hub 127 is going to offer our community members and visitors the perfect place to complete their work in any capacity,” said Paul Waters, President and CEO of the GCEDC. “This helps grow the entrepreneurial community creating a network of connections and collaboration in the area.”
“With the ever increasing entrepreneurial community in Southwest Indiana, it behooves us to offer this type of amenity for workers in the Gibson County area,” said Beth McFadin Higgins, President of the Southwest Indiana Regional Development Authority. “Talent comes in many forms and we want to make sure we’re creating environments that will help keep all of our workers here in Indiana’s Great Southwest.”
