Navigating Colorado’s Evolving Innovation Landscape: Investment Trends, Talent Development, and Emerging Market Opportunities in CRE
What You’ll Learn From CRE Leaders At This Event:
- How has venture capital driven the growth of Colorado’s life sciences ecosystem, particularly with the $2.15B raised in 2024, marking a 46% increase from 2023?
- With $52.9B in contributions to Colorado’s economy from life sciences, how does the sector impact the state’s overall economic health?
- How has Denver-Boulder’s life sciences talent pool- ranked 11th for R&D, 16th for manufacturing and 18th for Medtech– contributed to the region’s position as a leading hub for innovation in these subsectors?
- Given that life sciences project costs have risen by 20-25% since the pandemic, how are CRE professionals in Denver-Boulder adapting to these increased cost pressures?
- What considerations should developers in Denver-Boulder keep in mind when planning future life sciences facilities, particularly around the flexibility required for evolving technologies?
