Eric Engelmann says the future of Iowa business lies in helping startup entrepreneurs build companies within the state. A business accelerator he will launch next year on the second floor of his company’s new building in Cedar Rapids will do that, he said.

“The communities in this state have to start inventing the next generation of businesses and that is going to be in start-ups,” said Engelmann, president and CEO of the software company Geonetric. “This is as much about building the startup ecosystem as it is about the long-term competitive nature of the state of Iowa.”
