The company offers digital marketing, ad-tech, and sales enablement solutions for companies of all sizes. Jack Sandlin, state senator for District 36, recently visited the offices and welcomed the team to downtown Indianapolis.

“We need good digital marketers in our region. Indianapolis is on the path to be one of the leaders in technology in several different areas, and I think Spur Interactiv is a great addition,” Sandlin said.

Alex Smith said, “The IEDC's decision to invest in Spur is just one of many reasons that Indiana is consistently ranked among the best states to do business. On top of that, Indianapolis has grown to become one of the most vibrant tech cities in the U.S., and we appreciate Senator Sandlin taking the time to welcome us to the area.”

Reed Smith said, “We are excited to be entrusted to use the incentives offered from the IEDC to expand our team and train top-tier digital marketers who dedicate themselves to helping other businesses in the region thrive.”

 Spur Interactiv is exploring downtown locations for long-term offices to house their growing team. They expect to add 33 positions over the next three years.
