“Indiana’s employer community continues to be a leading voice in the field of employee health. With partners like FirstPerson continuing to put employee health and wellbeing at the top of their priority list, we’re excited to leverage our combined expertise to help develop continuous improvement,” said Phil Daniels, co-founder of Springbuk and Healthiest Employers.

Also returning as a promotional partner is Indiana Sports Corp a nonprofit organization that promotes wellbeing through the Indiana Sports Corp Corporate Challenge, a community event emphasizing healthy lifestyles, friendly competition and company camaraderie.

The partnership between Springbuk, FirstPerson and Indiana Sports Corp is driving a wholistic approach to health in corporate environments and the Indianapolis community. By empowering businesses to take control of making employees healthier while managing healthcare costs, these organizations are creating a healthier and more engaged workforce across Indiana with lasting impact.

“We are delighted to partner with Springbuk to bring Healthiest Employers back to Indianapolis,” said Bryan Brenner, founder and CEO of FirstPerson. “It’s important to honor the work innovative companies do to invest in their employees. Organizations of all sizes deserve support and recognition.”
