COLUMBUS, Ind. - The Greater Columbus Economic Development Corporation (EDC) hosts its 2026 Annual Meeting on Friday, February 27, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at The Commons in downtown Columbus.
The event will celebrate the EDC's 50th anniversary, bringing together business, civic, and community leaders to reflect on five decades of economic development in Columbus, Edinburgh, and throughout Bartholomew County.
Rather than a traditional keynote address, the program will feature a moderated panel conversation with longtime leaders and partners who have played meaningful roles in shaping the organization over the years. EDC President Phil Wagner will lead the conversation.
The luncheon is open to the public, but advance tickets must be purchased here for $85 each. Reserved corporate tables of eight are available while seats remain.
