What you got, Scott?

Greater Lafayette celebrates a string of summer successes Greater Lafayette continues to make great strides! Here are a few of the summer highlights we'd like to share with our readers. ► Wabash National Corporation looks to add 75 new employees and retain 375 with investments in two plants in the City of Lafayette. The City of Lafayette is supporting the expansions with tax abatements. Mayor Tony Roswarski said, “It’s a great investment for the community, it’s good jobs, it’s different types of technologies and different types of manufacturing. It would help position this plant and these facilities to be globally competitive in a very tight global market.” Congratulations to the Wabash National Corporation Team for the expansion and job growth. ► OnBoard, a subsidiary of Passageways, which offers a digital board-of-directors platform for businesses, announced a $100 million round of funding from a private equity firm based in San Diego and Baltimore. With the global pandemic forcing organizations to move to virtual meetings, OnBoard has seen substantial growth over the past two years, and this new funding will enable key growth for the company to meet demand. Passageways was started in West Lafayette in 2003 by its founder and CEO Paroon Chadha and was headquartered in Greater Lafayette until recently moving its headquarters to Indianapolis. Congratulations to the Passageways team and its OnBoard platform, which now serves more than 1,000 customers from 25 countries.
