CAMT Northern Colorado MEP Regional Office at CSU

 

The Colorado Association for Manufacturing and Technology (CAMT) and the CSU Office of Community and Economic Development are partners in the CAMT Northern Colorado Manufacturing Extension Partnership Regional Office at CSU in Fort Collins, CO. This partnership fits into the efforts of the Colorado Regional Innovation Cluster (RIC) for Aerospace and Clean Energy (ACE). The RIC for ACE is a strategic statewide approach to promote innovation in related Colorado industries by connecting them with partners, leveraging federal funds, and attracting private capital investment in the Colorado region.

CSU and CAMT aim to further economic development and positively impact communities throughout Colorado. The CSU-CAMT partnership will enable each organization to connect with a larger number of advanced manufacturing and technology companies across the state. We hope to facilitate greater communication and collaboration among companies, industry sectors, communities, educational institutions and other entities working toward Colorado’s economic vitality.
