About the Flipping Finance Challenge

It's a bird, it's a plane...it's our 4th annual civic problem-solving event!

Introducing Indiana Bond Bank's Flipping Finance Challenge 2022: Civic Super Heroes.

The goal of this event is to provide local units of government with access to new ideas and solutions, deeper consumer engagement, opportunities for co-creation, optimization of tasks, and reduced costs. Join other innovators and problem solvers from across our state as we gather in Indianapolis for a two-week design sprint to help Hoosier communities shift their organizational thinking, promote innovation and design new solutions to some of their most pressing challenges.

This year, there is up to $5,000 in prizes and a top team to selected to receive the first ever, Indiana Treasurer of State Award for Innovation in Public Finance!
