Co Labs Inc.

“Form 990-ez, part iii, line 28 - program service accomplishments:”

“Co-labs is a consortium of research universities, federal research labs, private businesses, local governments and nonprofit agencies created in 2007 to educate the public about the work and value of colorado's 30 federally funded labs and research institutions, facilitate technology transfer between the labs and the private sector and promote retention and expansion of the research. By building an informed constituency, co-labs connects the research of the federal scientists with colorado needs such as workforce development, entrepreneurial business creation, research opportunities with universities and technology companies and research collaborations.”

“Co-labs documents and publicizes the value and impact of these facilitiies. The 30 labs provide nearly 8,000 jobs and $2.3 billion in economic value to the state of colorado. Co-labs hosts the highest concentration of climate, weather and renewable energy scientists in the united states. Documenting these impacts and educating coloradans about the "cool science" being done here will result in greater support for the federal labs in their communities, greater ability to recruit top scientists to work here and more activity to link research to commercial products and enterprises. These are the metrics used to plan and evaluate co-labs programs.”
