The 2023 John Pappajohn Iowa Entrepreneurial Venture Competition contest is intended to encourage and promote entrepreneurial activity and create greater awareness of the resources available to entrepreneurs in Iowa. We especially encourage innovative, new ventures to participate!

Initial applications are due May 15, 2023 @ 11:59pm.
