To learn more, please click below. This program is a perfect example of public/private partnership. We're talking to Sam Bailey, Business Development Manager for the Governor's Office of Economic Development & International Trade and Program Director for (COCTW) Colorado Companies to Watch. That means he primarily works in business retention and expansion, helping existing businesses grow and expand their businesses which is now five years into the program with over 200 companies highlighted and close to, if not over a thousand finalists. Sam said, "We have really seen a lot of companies and communities come out and support these businesses - highlight them, recognize them - so the program has grown to quite a prestigious honor. This year alone we had a wonderful geographical diversity across the state of Colorado. We had companies from rural and urban communities - communities that we haven't seen on stage before. So this has been a banner year for COCTW. We're looking to continue that through outreach to our community partners across the state. It's important to note this is not a program just for the Front Range. It's for the entire state; we have companies from Durango, Carbondale, Craig, and Holly." Listen for more...
