Our members come from the private and public sectors and generally have C-Suite-level representation on our Board of Directors. This group of change-makers is comprised of industry leaders, local governments, professional services providers, local and national businesses, real estate owners, developers, investors, utility providers, and more.
We concentrate our efforts on attracting and retaining only primary employers because they enhance our local economy with investment from outside our community. This focus ensures that we create high-quality jobs for residents, boost tax revenue, and attract companies that will positively impact the City of Aurora, Adams County, and Arapahoe County.
Because we have extensive relationships in the public and private sectors, our members gain access to our entire network including elected officials and business and community leaders.
We specialize in finding strategic, transformational opportunities. Each project catalyzes economic development, creating a ripple effect by attracting more companies and investment and drawing attention from the global business community.
We’re a local economic development organization, but that doesn’t stop us from stepping up as a leader in our region. We’ve led numerous regional projects and believe that our community benefits from partnership. Members directly benefit and are often involved in our cross-jurisdictional collaboration.
Every organization is different and we ensure each gets a return on investment through tailor-made memberships. We avoid the multi-level model where some members arbitrarily get more services than others. Joining means becoming our partner, and we treat our partners like family.
Our track record of creating catalysts and landing big deals has created immense momentum for our community. Aurora is Colorado’s future with limitless opportunity and members get to be a part of making history.

But this is just the start. Our team can flex to your organization’s specific needs and objectives.
