THE PRIZE

What you could win

One economic development organization will win a free economic impact analysis of a real or planned project, built in IMPLAN with AI Connect.

Official Raffle Rules

The raffle is open to economic development organizations attending IEDC that enter during the event. Each organization may enter once. IMPLAN employees and affiliates aren’t eligible. IMPLAN will draw the winner at random.

One economic impact analysis of one economic development project in one region. You define the region (for example, one county, a multi-county area, or a state) when you enter or when you’re selected. The prize also includes a 1-hour session with IMPLAN where you use AI Connect to adjust scenarios and evaluate results. The prize has no cash value and can’t be transferred or exchanged for something else.

You’ll provide the project details we need to model it, such as industry, spending, jobs, and timeline. The project must be real or planned and have enough detail to model credibly. We may ask follow-up questions, and we may adjust the scope if the inputs aren’t sufficient.

We build the analysis in IMPLAN with AI Connect, using standard IMPLAN methodology and data. Results are estimates based on the inputs you provide, and IMPLAN doesn’t guarantee any particular outcome. You’re responsible for the accuracy of your data.

You can review the final report and ask for corrections. IMPLAN will share it publicly only after you approve the final version in writing. If you don’t approve, we won’t publish it, and you keep the report for your own use. Using your organization’s name or logo, including co-branding, also requires your approval.

Project details that aren’t public stay confidential unless you approve their release. You can redact sensitive inputs before approving publication.

IMPLAN will announce the winner publicly or contact them directly. The winner must respond within 14 days, or IMPLAN may choose an alternate winner. Once we have your project details, we’ll agree on a delivery timeline together.

TRUSTED BY THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE TO BE RIGHT

What is IMPLAN?

The Economic Impact Standard, With No Black Box.

IMPLAN quantifies how policies, investments and industry activity move jobs, income, output and tax revenue, so the figures you publish are backed by data rather than assumption. Every result runs through a transparent input-output model and traces back to source, which is what makes it defensible when a select committee, a regulator or a journalist asks where the number came from.

Built over five decades of methodological work, IMPLAN is a cloud platform used by corporations, governments, universities and associations on both sides of the Atlantic.

NEW • IMPLAN AI CONNECT

Ask the Model a Question in the Tools You Already Use.

AI Connect is a one-click, no-code connection that gives Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot direct access to real IMPLAN models and data. Bringing the analysis in-house used to mean hiring an economist. It now means asking a question properly.

  • Grounded, not generated: every figure comes from IMPLAN’s models, never a language model’s guess
  • Deterministic: ask twice, get the same defensible number
  • Full provenance: model, geography and data vintage on every result
  • Pass-through authentication: credentials never leave IMPLAN

CREDIBILITY

Cited Where It Counts.

IMPLAN analysis is quoted routinely by global, national and regional media covering economic, policy and industry impacts, and it has carried weight in legislative campaigns, funding cases and public consultations.
