Three Fishers Natives Selected for Prestigious 2026 Orr Fellowship Cohort

Three Fishers natives have been selected for the 2026 cohort of the Orr Fellowship, Indiana’s premier early career development program, organizers announced.

Evan Myers, a student at Indiana University, has been matched with Fords Fast Freight. Benjamin Greiwe of Indiana Wesleyan University will begin his fellowship with Ryan Fireprotection Inc., and Emi Robinson, a Purdue University student, has been matched with The MJ Companies. The three will begin their two-year fellowships following graduation.

They are among more than 90 college seniors and recent graduates selected statewide for the Orr Fellowship’s 2026 cohort. Fellows will start their placements in January 2026 for December graduates and June 2026 for May graduates.

Myers, Greiwe and Robinson join a network of 676 Orr Fellowship alumni and 131 current Fellows. Founded in 2001, the program recruits and matches high-achieving university graduates with growing Indiana-based companies in Central and Southwest Indiana, providing professional development, leadership training and long-term career support.

“We’re thrilled to welcome this new group of highly motivated up-and-coming talent to Orr Fellowship,” said Steven Emch, president of Orr Fellowship. “With these vetted, high-potential graduates, Orr partner companies gain dedicated, skilled employees who contribute significantly to their success and are more likely than their non-Orr peers to remain with the organization long-term.”

In addition to full-time roles with partner companies, Fellows receive formal leadership training, mentorship, networking opportunities and access to an expedited pathway into the Kelley Evening MBA program and the Butler University MBA program.

The 2026 cohort reflects continued growth for the program, with more than a dozen new partner companies added in both Central and Southwest Indiana. This year’s class also includes, for the first time, graduates from the University of Houston, Kentucky Wesleyan University and the University of Washington, expanding the program’s national reach.

Orr Fellowship officials say the program plays a key role in attracting and retaining young professional talent in Indiana while helping businesses build strong leadership pipelines for the future.
