State of Change

The state of Indiana is brimming with potential—and it’s poised to make a difference far beyond its borders.

Indiana residents Shannon, Dengke, and Jaedyn are all at different points in their pursuit of undergraduate degrees, but they share a curiosity for what’s to come next—both for their own futures, and for the future of their home state.

Traveling across Indiana to take a closer look at some of the state’s leading industries, they see that no matter what their fellow Hoosiers are using to innovate—be it seeds, software, or steel—they’re all working toward the same goal: finding new solutions for a changing world. As their eyes are opened to all of the possibilities Indiana has to offer, they realize that when you find the courage to accept change, you also gain the courage to grow.

INSIGHTS FROM THE FILM

"You just need to understand that you’re not always going to jump straight to the top; you’ve got to realize it takes hard work sometimes. It’s possible—you’ve just gotta look around."

Joshua Cowan, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) Technician, GE Aviation

"One of the core values of innovation is humility. If you don’t have humility, you’re not going to be open to new ideas, and that’s what innovation is."

Hallie Brinkerhuff, Director of Sports Medicine Research & Development, Zimmer Biomet

"Ignore the probability; live life to the possibility."

Polina Feldman, Director of Research and Human Performance, Recovery Force

"Your potential is nearly unlimited if you’re willing to put yourself out there and do that scary thing. You might fail, you might get told ‘no,’ but at the end of life, you won’t regret the things you tried."
