As new OneZone members we wanted to introduce ourselves, share about our roles with Indiana Wesleyan University, and offer the opportunity to tell us your story! In the current economic climate, we are seeing how critical it is to invest in relationships by sharing our stories, and we also realize many organizations are in the unsettling process of evaluating their own path forward. Higher education is no exception!
IWU is a private Christian university (based in Marion, IN) with a proud history of integrating faith and leadership into our degree programs for over 100 years. And we were innovative leaders in bringing degrees to working adults right here in Indianapolis nearly 25 years ago. Our Indianapolis North Center, located in the Lakefront at Keystone Office Park (formerly The Precedent), was built in 1997 to serve in bringing IWU degrees to central Indiana and to establish a place to develop community partnerships. Our 50,000 square-foot facility offers a safe and welcoming environment ideal for professional conferences, training sessions, or leadership team gatherings. IWU’s Indy North Center serves as a conference center for our office park neighbors and over 120 businesses headquartered across the region and the country, but COVID-19 drastically disrupted our business model this year like it did for so many other organizations! Within our roles as the Conferencing Services Team at Indy North, we recognize the way we had been doing in-person events has changed for everybody – and some changes are likely permanent. Between safety protocols, government mandates on meeting restrictions, budget constraints, and the convenience of virtual platforms, many organizations have eliminated physical meetings for the remainder of 2020. Those who are able to resume meeting have re-formatted their meetings to fit within the current restrictions. We have appreciated all of the insight our clients and industry leaders have been sharing with us and we are doing our best to plan for the future. We are encouraged by the opportunities in front of us to reimagine how local partnerships can help us grow as an institution and to provide valuable services to our community. Whether it is by availability of our educational opportunities, or opening our buildings to those around us, IWU is looking forward to the future of business! BIBIBOP Asian Grill will open the first of two Indianapolis-area locations this Thursday, September 17th, at 365 W 116th Street in Carmel. Since opening their first location in 2013, BIBIBOP has been sharing healthy & affordable Asian food along with a message of well-being throughout the country. The new Carmel - The Bridges location will be the 42nd for BIBIBOP, joining locations in California, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio, and Washington D.C. “The BIBIBOP Asian Grill concept has performed very well with consumers, as demonstrated by our steady growth through the years,” said founder Charley Shin. “As we’ve expanded, we have never lost sight of our commitment to bringing our signature ‘WELL BEING’ to all of the communities we serve by strengthening our neighbors and enriching the lives of our team members.” At BIBIBOP, guests build their own bowl filled with the fresh and healthy ingredients they want- ingredients like USDA steak or antibiotic-free chicken, fresh vegetables, rice, potatoes, and bold and flavorful sauces like sweet and tangy Yum Yum or a spicy Korean favorite, Gochujang. BIBIBOP’s customizable bowls allow guests to create gluten-free, vegetarian, or vegan-friendly meals that align with their lifestyle. BIBIBOP Carmel – The Bridges will officially open with a ribbon-cutting the morning of the 17th and will offer in-person, online, curbside, and delivery orders throughout the day. BIBIBOP will mark the opening with a safe but fun celebration that will include special gifts, prizes, and samples. Guests who use the BIBIBOP Rewards App at the new Carmel – The Bridges location through opening weekend will also earn a free BOGO Bowl offer that can be redeemed starting September 22nd.

Immersaf Media uses 3D imaging, virtual reality, and 360 photography to create immersive experiences for marketing, education, and the AEC industry. We create digital twins of physical locations so potential customers and clients can virtually “walk through” your showroom, event space, senior living community, or any other space.
An interactive virtual tour allows businesses to show off their space while cutting down on physical traffic. This can help pre-qualify clients or even save lives in the case of senior living communities in our current COVID-19 world. Digital twins also bring students and trainees to locations that are too far away or to dangerous to visit in person while providing interactivity like timed quizzes, videos, and narration. The digital assets created with the digital twin are accurate to scale to within 1%. They are ideal for replacing measurements and thousands of photos when producing as-builts for construction. 3D CAD and point cloud files can be quickly generated to speed up the bid process. At the same time, the high resolution 360 imagery can allow inspectors to catch any mistakes early and from anywhere in the world. These digital assets can also be handed down to facilities management teams providing valuable documentation after construction is complete. https://immersaf.com/3d-model/four-day-ray-brewery/ https://immersaf.com/3d-model/commercial-construction-example/ Contact us to discuss your project and get a free quote: matt@immersaf.com or 317-603-6363 OneZone is excited to announce a new partnership with Bankable.

Christopher Riffel, Document Solutions Consultant criffel@vanausdall.com During summer, we traditionally encourage parents to guard against the summer slide, in which children lose 2-3 months of the previous year’s math learning during the long summer break. But this is hardly a traditional year.
Currently, more than 50 million U.S. families are already fighting what educators are calling the “COVID slide” — the learning loss that results from students being shut out of school for an extended period of time during the pandemic. To beat the slide Mathnasium has come up with a solution- Mathnasium@home. We recommend Mathnasium@home, so students can continue to make up lost ground, avoid the learning loss that typically comes with summer break, or get ahead for the next academic year. While teachers are worried about students falling behind, Mathnasium@home is here to help tackle this crisis. Mathnasium of fishers is getting ready for the grand opening and offering free enrollment and free trial sessions. With the flexibility to learn math both in-center and online, Mathnasium is more accessible than ever before. Call now @317-733-5000 or visit us at mathnasium.com/fishers to find out more. NextGear Capital has been a part of the Carmel community since 2013 after a successful merger between Dealer Services Corporation (DSC) and Manheim Automotive Financial Services. The company employs over 900 team members and is the country’s leading provider of floor plans to independent dealers. A floor plan offers automotive dealers flexible and customizable lines of credit to acquire inventory for their dealership. Unlike taking out a loan from a traditional bank, a floor plan is a revolving line of credit that a dealer can utilize for the life of their business. NextGear Capital supports more than 23,000 dealers with financing while also giving them access to tools like Account Portal which helps them easily manage their day-to-day business.
While NextGear Capital is focused on investing in its dealers, it also believes in giving back to the local community. Because of this, team members have been active in volunteering for organizations like Habitat for Humanity and local food pantries. Every year, the company hosts a “No Excuses Month” in conjunction with their parent company, Cox Automotive, where team members are encouraged to volunteer throughout their communities. Some of the activities included annually are a Polar Plunge to benefit Special Olympics, hands on activities with Keep Indianapolis Beautiful and a company-wide blood drive for the Versiti Blood Center of Indiana. During the recent COVID-19 pandemic, NextGear Capital team members further stepped up by making over 100 masks for family members, friends and neighbors. The company also made a $25,000 donation from the James F. Cox Foundation to Gleaners Food Pantry to support local families in need during the pandemic. It’s no surprise that several of its dealers are also active in local nonprofit organizations in their communities like Military MOMS of Fort Jackson and 33 for Charity. NextGear Capital knows that by investing in its dealers, they’re also able to make in impact in the communities that their clients operate in. As a part of Cox Automotive, the company prides itself on being committed to diversity and creating an inclusive workforce through its Employee Resource Groups (ERG’s). Some of these include PRIDE, Mosaic and Women with Drive, all whose missions include creating a supporting and authentic work environment for groups and individuals who face discrimination throughout society. It also encourages the ideas of young people through internships available throughout the organization. To find out more about NextGear Capital and how it gives back to the local community, you can follow them on Facebook or visit www.nextgearcapital.com.
