Growing insights. Growing agriculture. Growing you.

Cultivate 360 is a new, statewide industry education and professional development program designed for established professionals to deepen their understanding of Iowa’s food and agriculture sector, polish leadership skills and expand professional networks.

The program is hosted by America’s Cultivation Corridor and made possible with support from Corridor investors and sponsor organizations, including presenting partner Iowa State University Extension and Outreach and partner ISG.

Take a deep dive into the economics and trends driving the industry
Experience the new technologies and innovations shaping the future through tours and panel discussions with researchers, founders and entrepreneurs
Network with cohort members, industry leaders and local professionals at each event

Growing opportunities, addressing a need

"Our Food and Ag Perceptions Survey found that mid-career professionals were looking for opportunities to grow in their career and knowledge across sectors. This program is designed to help fill that gap and give individuals a full picture of the industry and its impact and diversity across the state."

- Billi Hunt, Executive Director of America's Cultivation Corridor
