Iowa City

Perhaps you know Iowa City as home of the University of Iowa Hawkeyes, but have you heard about its “Curious Communities?” If you’re, well, curious as to why they’re called as such, Iowa City and its surrounding communities offer more than a dozen museums, unique boutiques and a hip bar and restaurant scene. As a UNESCO City of Literature, Iowa City is also home to a variety of literary and writing programs. Nearly two dozen Big Ten sports add collegiate excitement to a community already rich in recreation with more than 70 parks near rivers, lakes and trails.

Established companies prosper in Iowa City, but opportunities abound for new businesses, too. Iowa City is part of the ICR (Iowa City-Cedar Rapids) Corridor, a diverse region well-known for its commitment to innovation and entrepreneurism.
