City expands Discover Batesville economic development website

Batesville, IN –The newly-expanded Discover Batesville website launched Thursday.

The economic development focused-site showcases local schools, healthcare options, and workforce development and training.

“One of our priorities was to make information more easily accessible to both site selectors and the public through demographic data about our city, as well as maps and links to relevant resources,” said Sarah Lamping, Economic Development Director for the City of Batesville. “Also being recognized for the passion and details that went into developing a first-class, yet informative economic and community development website featuring the workings of a robust plan and marketing strategy, is rewarding.”

Prior to relaunching, the website was submitted for consideration in the Website Design/Government category with the AVA Digital Awards, an international competition that recognizes excellence by creative professionals responsible for the planning, concept, direction, design, and production of digital communication.

The newly redesigned website received a 2023 Honorable Mention.

The Batesville Marketing Coalition, which is comprised of the Economic and Community Development Directors from the City of Batesville; representatives from the Economic Development Commission; Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce, and Batesville Main Street launched www.DiscoverBatesville.com in 2022.

The group says they are very excited about the newly expanded site, featuring over 80 user-friendly and informative pages with vibrant photography to attract quality businesses, investors, residents, and visitors.
