The Companies
There’s a semi-comprehensive list of every biotech, pharmaceutical & life science company out here, and it highlights the significant collection of biotech companies in the Denver and Boulder areas. The new information comes from the JLL Life Sciences Report, which cites “recently signed lease deals this summer” and a year-over-year boost of $280 million in NIH funding. The report’s conclusion? The Denver/Boulder biotech office market ranks 13 in the nation, and is “gaining attention on national scale.”
Growth Areas
One county seeing noteable growth: Jefferson. From the report: While not growing as much, the southeast suburban Denver area is still going strong in the area of life sciences across the board, and Boulder’s surrounding areas also seem poised to fully employ those in the Boulder area: Though the percentage of available space has constricted recently in the field, the Denver/Boulder biotech market looks like it will remain healthy for years to come.
