Sep 08, 2020
By Kerty Levy, Managing Director of Techstars Iowa Accelerator
It is with great excitement that we announce the inaugural class of Techstars Iowa! Over the next three months these companies will rapidly accelerate their businesses by working closely with the expansive global network of Techstars which now includes the networks of our university partners at Grinnell College, Iowa State University, the University of Iowa as well as the engaged startup community throughout Iowa and the greater Midwest.
From the very beginning, we set out to find world-class entrepreneurs who were solving problems and making a difference in the world. We were blown away by the quality of startups who connected with us during our first year and the selected companies represent a diverse group of backgrounds, ideas, and industries. The founders hail from Iowa, the Midwest, the Southeast, the San Francisco Bay Area, Canada and India. They are tackling challenges in areas such as healthcare, community engagement, coaching, education, creative collaboration, supply chain, travel, and occupational health and safety.
And here they are!
