The Concept Works was founded in 2002 when it was obvious that Iowans and out-of-state entities doing business in the Hawkeye State needed a single company capable of delivering quality, integrated services in the realms of public, media and government relations, public affairs, crisis management and marketing. The goal was also to create an ideas factory. An environment so conducive to creativity that it consistently pumps out fresh, winning concepts. A smart, productive, results-oriented place that turns ideas into action.
