Iowa Values Fund Status Report

The Iowa Values Fund, a taxpayer financed venture capital program to retain and create jobs, provided the state legislature and citizens with a status report on its activities in June. The report is available by CLICKING HERE to download. In addition to the usual claims about the number of jobs created and retained, the report also lists those firms which are "on schedule," "behind schedule," and those "referred to collections." The report includes Values Fund awards, as well as all business development grants by the Iowa Department of Economic Development (IDED).
