ACCELERATING BUSINESS GROWTH
The Iowa Business Accelerators were developed and funded by the Iowa Legislature to propel Iowa's entrepreneurial efforts into successful businesses. In a local and state, public and private collaboration, accelerators have been set up in Iowa. The accelerators are staffed by seasoned entrepreneurs who understand how to create high growth businesses.
Any of these business accelerators is ready and able to assist businesses to form and expand. To get some help getting your business off the ground, contact one of the Business Accelerators.
