The Innovators Podcast

About The Innovators Podcast: The Innovators Podcast was started in 2020 to highlight some of the incredible people in Ames, at Iowa State, and in the Research Park. Hosted by Research Park staff, the Podcast aims to share the stories of innovation and entrepreneurship that often go unseen in our communities.

If you or someone you know is doing innovative things in the Research Park, at Iowa State University, or in the Ames Community, reach out to Alison Doyle. We would love to feature you!
