Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds says there are many “potential outcomes” from her trade mission to Israel. Reynolds and two dozen other Iowans have been in Israel since last Thursday.
Iowa Economic Development Authority director Debi Durham made a presentation to more than 130 Israelis at a seminar about investing in Iowa.
Six Israeli start-up companies made pitches to the Iowans about potential joint ventures. There’s talk of executives in the medical research field from Iowa and Israel meeting face-to-face again next year.
Reynolds and Durham had a private meeting with an Israeli company they are “recruiting” to expand in Iowa. The name of the company is not being disclosed. The governor is making a stop in Germany on her way back to Iowa to make a pitch to a company there as well.
