Colorado Connects 
Companies to 
Global Markets
For commercial life sciences 
companies, including Agilent 
Technologies and Biodesix, 
Colorado’s central location 
makes operations more efficient 
with ease of shipping and travel. 
“We get raw materials from all over 
the world, and we ship our products 
all over the world,” says Agilent’s Site 
Head for Manufacturing, John Flahive. 
“Having Denver International Airport 
right by us, having that logistics 
corridor, is fantastic.”
Colorado’s location also helps teams 
work across U.S. time zones and reach 
customers, partners, and patients 
with speed and efficiency.
“
DEN serves as 
Colorado’s gateway to 
the world, connecting 
the state’s bioscience 
and health innovators 
with global markets, 
research institutions 
and industry partners.
