Economic development groups hope a new partnership with a site selection company it hopes will boost business interest in the Corridor.

The Iowa City Area Development Group (ICAD) and Cedar Rapids Metro Economic Alliance, two of the seven counties that make up Iowa’s Creative Corridor, hired Site Location Partnership (SLP) to represent and market the region at industry trade shows.

SLP, a Dallas-based consultant, will market the corridor’s advanced manufacturing, bio processing, food ingredients, distribution and logistics industries, among others, to companies interested in expanding or relocating to the Corridor.  More here.
