Description
COLORADO AND THE SPACE INDUSTRY
Colorado's aerospace industry is thriving. The state's companies and universities are contributing to the industry's growth and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in space exploration and technology. With a rich history and a robust ecosystem of space and advanced industries, Colorado has become a hub of innovation and progress in this field. We have the country's second-largest aerospace industry behind California and the highest concentration of private aerospace employees in the nation. Colorado has about 290 aerospace companies and more than 500 companies that provide space-related products and services.
If you've been curious about this burgeoning local industry, then this Business Over Breakfast will fascinate you. Two of the state's leading experts on the growing industry will be our guests, helping us better understand the sector's tremendous impact on the local and state economy and the opportunities it offers.
Dave Gruber and Stephen Gourley, both retired U.S. Air Force officers and leaders in the Aurora Chamber's Defense Council, have held top positions in both public and private sectors. Both are recognized as leading authorities on the State's aerospace and defense industries. Col. Gruber retired as base commander at Buckley Air Force Base and served on the Aurora City Council.
Business Over Breakfast is free to members and an excellent opportunity to network and learn. You must RSVP in advance. While outer space is unlimited, space at this event is not!
