CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (October 5, 2023) – The Gazette events team is in full-on logistics mode-meeting with moderators, panelists and keynotes to prepare for an exciting, connecting filled Iowa Ideas conference October 12-13. The Gazette and Iowa Ideas sponsors can’t wait to go live and return as one of the largest idea sharing experiences in the state.

CLOSING KEYNOTE ANNOUNCED! This year’s closing keynote is Leslie J. Williams, a 25-year biopharmaceutical veteran who is co-founder, director and chief executive officer of Cambridge, Mass.,-based hC Bioscience.
