olorado’s place at the center of the 
country gives life sciences companies 
direct access to markets, talent, and 
partners. Just as important, our community stays 
grounded in the work itself.
Founders, researchers, investors, and institutions 
focus on science and impact. They collaborate across 
disciplines, move discoveries toward commercializa­
tion, and build companies with intention.
That combination defines Colorado’s advantage: 
a strategic location and a connected ecosystem with 
a clear sense of purpose.
Colorado State University 
Prepares for an Ambitious Future
As Colorado’s land-grant university, Colorado State 
University has long built its research around solving 
high-stakes problems. Through its innovation and com­
mercialization arm, CSU STRATA, the university pro­
tects and licenses intellectual property and advances 
university-born technologies toward solutions with 
the potential to benefit health for humans and animals.
“The most consequential problems do not fit neatly 
within a single discipline,” says Cassandra Moseley, 
Ph.D., Vice President for Research at CSU.
