Success Story: Iasourcelink
Since its development more than 10 years ago, Iowa has become one of the most impactful statewide entrepreneurial infrastructures in the country through its IASourceLink network. The program was developed using the SourceLink model for building entrepreneurial communities. It emerged first as a central Iowa initiative, then later expanded across the state. Iowa stands proud among their many statewide SourceLink network peers, some of which include Wisconsin, Louisiana, Missouri, Kansas, Oregon, and Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
