People want to live in Denver, and companies from across the country are taking note.

It doesn’t take long to understand the appeal of Denver – proximity to the mountains, 300 days of sunshine, an epic food and booze scene, just to name a few. But beyond the hiking, cycling and craft beer lies a strong business community that is helping companies from startups to Fortune 500s thrive.

Almost every week, a new company is making headlines for moving their headquarters or setting up a major operation in the Mile High City. And for good reason.

With such an active startup scene and steady business growth, Denver’s commercial real estate market is going to remain strong in 2018, meaning the perfect space at your price point could be here one day and gone the next.

It’s no secret that the Denver Metro Area is thriving. Companies big and small continue to flock here looking to tap into Colorado’s highly educated workforce and attract out-of-state talent with a desirable location that boasts the trifecta of reasonable cost of living (especially compared to the coasts), quality of life (the Rocky Mountains are, after all, in our backyard) and a great job market.

But with these amenities available to everyone, what makes certain companies stand out from the pack? Here are four must-haves to attract and retain your top talent.

The energy sector in Colorado has seen its fair share of ups and downs over the years, but it has always remained a vital part of the economic fabric of Metro Denver. As a key industry that we serve at Column Commercial Partners, we make it a point to stay up to date on the latest news and policies that affect our clients to better understand their real estate needs – and that includes attending industry-specific events.
