Des Moines Welcomes Back Tech Hub LIVE
The Greater Des Moines Partnership (GDMP) went all out to welcome the fourth Tech Hub LIVE Conference and Expo back to Des Moines. The Iowa welcoming party was a Top Gun-themed event at the Ricochet in downtown Des Moines, which was once again a very popular and enjoyable event for everyone.
This is the third time the event has been hosted in Des Moines, which has welcomed them with open arms between the GDMP, Iowa Economic Development Authority, ISU Research Park, and America’s Cultivation Corridor. “There ’s probably not a better fit for America’s Cultivation Corridor than Tech Hub LIVE,” says Executive Director Bill Hunt. “Over the last 10 years, we have seen a 40% increase in food and ag businesses located in Iowa, nearly 10,000 patents happening for our industry, and over 175% increase in venture capitol coming to our industry in Iowa.”
