  INDIANAPOLIS, IN, May 27 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
On Thursday, June 11, the Green Business Network (GBN) will present
Indiana Green Business networking series event at the Columbia Club
located on Monument Circle in downtown Indianapolis. The event is the
first of three that GBN will conduct through the end of 2009.

    By means of panel discussion and networking, this event will focus on
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Funding (ARRA) and governmental
grants available on federal, state and local levels for Indiana energy
efficiency, energy conservation, and renewable energy projects.

    Panel speakers include Paul Krievins of the Indiana Housing and Community
Development Authority along with members of local governments and

    This GBN program seeks diversity in its attendance, which will include
corporate leaders, business professionals, business owners, local
policymakers, educators, and local media persons. GBN has reserved two
full two hours for event guests to engage in green networking.

    The event is sponsored by Knauf Insulation -- leading global manufacturer
