UIDP Xurban 2023 Webinar Series Session 3: Enabling Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Xurban Areas
View the September 21 webinar | Iowa State University is building an innovative real estate development to reimagine its landmark educational, cultural, and athletic complex—CYTown. The CYTown development leans into its adjacency to the thriving Iowa State Research Park and capitalizes on the work of the greater Ames region to scale infrastructure and community amenities through close partnerships between Iowa State, Iowa State Research Park, and the Ames Economic Development Corporation. CYTown is intended to bring additional visitors and entertainment options to young professionals, students, faculty, and staff, while complementing Ames’ reputation as an outstanding community to live, work, play, or attend school. CYTown will transform the Iowa State experience and Ames community while generating revenues to reinvest in the fine arts and athletics facilities. This webinar will discuss key learnings from the CYTown development process that translate to other Xurban communities.
