Colorado Companies To Watch: Fueling the economic fire

However many billions the federal government pumps into the economy, one truth rings clear: It will be business that will lift the country out of the doldrums and thrust it forward into the 21st century.

There are 50 companies that you can expect to help lead the way. The annual list is presented by the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade in association with several economic development agencies, foundations and private businesses.

The list recognizes companies that are developing valuable products and services, creating quality jobs, enriching communities and creating new industries throughout the state. From 2004 to 2008, these companies have generated nearly $1.3 billion in revenue and added 1,400 employees – a 200 percent increase in revenue and 163 percent increase in jobs. This year, the companies expect to grow revenue by 44 percent and their work forces by 18 percent.
