By the way, Governor Ritter plans to attend the BIO conference and here are a few of his thoughts on our eco-system.

“I am very excited to showcase Colorado’s commitment to the bio- and life-sciences during the upcoming BIO 2008 event in San Diego,” Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter said. “Colorado’s bioscience community is making incredible advances and we have a tremendous success story to tell. We recently established a Colorado Bioscience Grant Program to promote the industry and facilitate tech transfer. Colorado’s first Nobel Laureate, Tom Cech, just announced his return to the state. Our Anschutz Medical Campus at Fitzsimons and the research and development work being done in Boulder and Fort Collins are making Colorado a regional bioscience hub. My administration has made the biosciences one of the focal points of our overall economic-development strategy, and by elevating the stature of this crucial Industry of the future, we are competing on a national and international level.”
