The Cedar Valley TechWorks is a step closer to becoming the physical location of an advanced manufacturing hub for the region and state, organizers announced Tuesday.
Nearly $4 million in state funding was included in the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) appropriations budget for improvements to the 30-acre research and development center, located in downtown Waterloo.
The Cedar Valley Techworks is part of a $50 million downtown redevelopment project announced in January that will include a 100-room hotel, a restaurant complex and green office space.
