Capital Crossroads Report Released, Section Examines Startup Ecosystem
Posted September 19, 2011Â by Silicon Prairie News
Earlier this month the Capital Crossroads Vision Strategic Plan was released to the public. This plan, the culmination of nearly a yearâs worth of work, is a five year âroadmapâ for the development of Central Iowa. The plan document itself is a healthy 100 pages in length and a bit intimidating to digest. It covers everything from business to culture to the environment and Iâm just now getting the chance to delve into it.
The pages most apropos to the Silicon Prairie News community are 23-26, part of the section âStart-up and Sustain.â
Iâll be writing in-depth on this part of the plan in the coming months, but for now, I encourage everyone to check it out at capitalcrossroadsvision.com.
