The Versa Group: Colorado among Best US States for Business

    DENVER, CO, March 27, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Versa Group studied reports by the Wall Street Journal into the best states for business in the US. Factors that were used to determine the best states included Real GDP growth, average wages and salaries, the percentage of adults with bachelor's degrees, patents issued to residents and finally projected working-age population growth. After reviewing these statistics it was generalized to create a balance between attracting skilled workers, the stability of the economy in the state, how much disposable income is available and the cost of resources for businesses including overheads such as business rates, average rents per sqm, and average wage rates.

Colorado's business climate is among the best in the country largely due to a strong labour market and an especially strong and innovative technology sector. These features are interwoven as a highly educated workforce and are essential for innovation.

As of that year, 14% of adults had completed a graduate or professional degree, a higher percentage than in all but a handful of states. The state's population is projected to grow by 13.4% from 2010 through to 2020 versus an estimated national growth rate of 7.1%, which also contributes to a strong labour market. Nearly 22% of all jobs in Colorado were STEM positions, the seventh highest proportion in the country.
