An Action Plan to Grow Colorado’s Bioscience Cluster

In 2002 the Governor’s Office of Innovation and Technology partnered with a management team that included industry, university and government representatives along with the Battelle Memorial Institute’s Technology Partnership Practice to assess he status of the Colorado bioscience sector and ultimately develop a plan outlining the action agenda needed to make the biosciences a key driver of Colorado’s economy. The report titled "Colorado’s Place in the Sun: A Bioscience Future, An Action Plan to Grow Colorado’s Bioscience Cluster" was published In March 2003.

The original action plan to grow the bioscience cluster identified three main growth strategies. These included creating a business climate conducive to the growth of bioscience companies, creating a bioscience entrepreneurial culture that turns research discoveries into new products, services and companies and expanding the research base and building research excellence.
