Elevate Iowa Manufacturing Tour

Elevate Iowa RV Tour: Driving the Future of Manufacturing

This October, the Elevate Iowa RV Tour is hitting the road to showcase the exciting career opportunities in advanced manufacturing across Iowa. As part of Manufacturing Month, this statewide tour will connect students, educators and job seekers with Iowa’s top manufacturers, demonstrating the innovation, technology and high-paying careers that fuel our economy. Each stop along the tour will feature hands-on experiences, industry insights and real-world success stories — all while leading up to the Iowa Association of Business and Industry’s annual Manufacturing Conference Oct. 14 in Altoona.

The 2025 Elevate Iowa RV Tour marks the relaunch of the Elevate Iowa program, reinforcing its mission to promote Iowa’s manufacturing workforce. By engaging communities, businesses and education partners, this initiative will highlight the pathways available for individuals to build rewarding careers in modern manufacturing. Whether you’re a student exploring career options, an educator looking for industry connections or a company eager to support Iowa’s workforce, the Elevate Iowa RV Tour is your gateway to the future of manufacturing.
