INDIANAPOLIS — Spur Interactiv, an innovative digital marketing and ad-tech agency co-founded by Wawasee High School graduates Alex Smith (2003) and Reed Smith (2006), was selected by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation to receive a $50,000 training grant and up to $350,000 in Economic Development for a Growing Economy tax credits.

The company, currently located at 47 Meridian St., Indianapolis, 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 stated.

Spur Interactiv was co-founded by brothers and lifelong Hoosiers Alex and Reed Smith. “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,” stated Alex Smith. Added Reed Smith, “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.”
