Why DSM USA?
Greater things are happening in Greater Des Moines (DSM). Over the past five years, the region has continually been recognized by Site Selection Magazine as a Top 10 Metro for Number of Economic Development Projects, due in part to its low cost of doing business — which is 12% lower than the national average, according to Moody’s Analytics. Not only is the area booming with new business investment, but talent is also drawn here. In 2023, Forbes recognized DSM as the #1 City for Young Professionals to Live. Furthermore, the nearby Iowa State University and Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) further cultivate a strong talent pipeline by offering education in manufacturing, logistics, supply chain management, transportation and other complementary degrees and trades.
