But entrepreneurs are some of the most fascinating people. But why do we find them so fascinating?
So whether you come from an entrepreneurial background or maybe you just learned how to spell entre-pre-neur,
We believe that an adventure in entrepreneurship is worth starting while at Iowa State.
It’s an exciting time for entrepreneurship in Ames…
Now, more than ever the resources, the minds + the ability to overcome, grow + be bold is apparent.
And guess what?
We would love to help you in anyway we can — whether it’s a connection within Iowa State, a live-case study for your business led by a student team, business counseling and training, or locating space within ISU Research Park.
Since 1996, the ISU Pappajohn Center for Entrepreneurship has helped fuel businesses in Iowa. We want to take you from “I have an idea” to “I run a million billion-dollar company.” And we know it’s possible.
The John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Centers offer a comprehensive entrepreneurial program for learning. My goal in establishing the centers is to educate and train adults and students to give them confidence…so that they can become successful entrepreneurs.
The Pappajohn Center has been there for me and my business as I have gone through several pivots over the last two years. From teaching calligraphy workshops to now running a full-service creative design studio, I have found incredible mentorship, funding, and even collaboration opportunities working with their lovely staff as my business has grown and changed. They are always there to celebrate the successes, or help you work through all of the challenges that come along with running a startup!
To date, CYstarters has been the most pivotal move I’ve made in my professional life. My greatest passions, the majority of skillset, and even my current employment are ALL thanks to the people at the Pappajohn Center.
If you or someone you know is or will be attending ISU, CYstarters is a can’t-miss.
