7 A HUB FOR COMMERCIAL SPACE ACTIVITIES The five-year CAMT NASA Space Act Agreement, signed in 2010, established a public-private partnership between NASA and the Colorado Association for Manufacturing and Technology (CAMT) to increase and advance tech transfer between NASA and Colorado companies. The Space Act Agreement streamlines access to existing NASA resources and technologies, facilitates R&D and supplier partnerships, and helps companies progress to commercialization and manufacturing scale-up. A NASA technology transfer and licensing expert is partnering with CAMT to help Colorado companies identify NASA technologies, facilitate connections, and accelerate technology transfer and commercialization of a new generation of products based on space-related innovations. To address the current and future challenges of commercial space transportation, in 2010 the Federal Aviation Administration established a Center of Excellence for Commercial Space Transportation, of which CU-Boulder is a core member. The Center brings together government, industry, and academic institutions to focus on commercial human space flight, space commerce, space launch operations and traffic management, and launch vehicle systems. espace: The Center for Space Entrepreneurship is a not-for-profit organization based in Louisville that supports the creation and development of entrepreneurial space companies, the commercialization of the technologies they create, and the workforce to fuel their growth. BUILDING SPACEPORT COLORADO Colorado is actively pursuing commercial spaceport designation, with Adams County s Front Range Airport a likely site for Colorado s first spaceport. Front Range Airport s unique position for a spaceport is a result of its rural location, excess capacity, and proximity to Denver International Airport. To further pave the way for Spaceport Colorado, Gov. John Hickenlooper signed legislation in 2012 that limits the liability for public and private entities holding a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) license for spaceflight activities. In addition, Adams County Economic Development and regional partners formed the Spaceport Colorado and Aeronautical Authority to provide administrative support for the Spaceport and the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) effort in the state. Front Range Airport secured a $200,000 FAA grant in 2012 as well as commitments of $660,000 from strategic partners to conduct a feasibility study, the next step toward designating the proposed facility at the airport as a commercial spaceport that will outline the spaceport s operating logistics. Approval for spaceport designation could be granted as early as the end of At the Forefront of Unmanned Aerial Systems Research and Development Colorado is a leader in unmanned aerial systems (UAS) research and development. In addition to a wealth of academic expertise in unmanned vehicle systems, Colorado is also a vibrant base of commercial and military UAS activity. Colorado is 3rd in the U.S. for residents with a bachelor s degree or higher. U.S. Census Bureau, 2011 With its variety of airspace, environmental conditions, and terrain, Colorado provides an ideal geographic location for federal, state, and private UAS research and operations, and the region is actively working to expand its UAS assembly, launch, and operational test areas. A 2013 study by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International reported that Colorado is poised to create more than 1,191 new jobs during the first three years following integration of UAS into U.S. national airspace system.
8 A Progressive Business Environment ENTREPRENEURIAL, BUSINESS-FRIENDLY STATE Colorado is a forward-thinking state with an entrepreneurial business climate. Along with few regulatory barriers, Colorado has one of the nation s lowest corporate income tax rates a flat 4.63 percent. Colorado offers single-factor tax apportionment, which assesses taxes on a company s sales in the state only. Taxes State Corporate and Personal Income Tax Tax years beginning on or after: January 1, % January 1, % Prior to January 1, % Sales Tax Total State, Local, and Special Districts 3.15%-8.75% MILE HIGH INNOVATION Colorado s ever-increasing reputation as one of the nation s leading states for innovation soared even higher in 2012 when the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) chose Denver as one of four new satellite offices. The USPTO chose Denver because the region has one of the highest per capita rates of people with science and technology degrees, has relatively low living costs, and offers a high quality of life and a desirable location in which to recruit and retain the most talented workers. The patent office will further expand Colorado s already enviable high-tech and innovation economy. INCENTIVES TO ADVANCE YOUR AEROSPACE BUSINESS The Job Growth Incentive Tax Credit allows companies to apply to the Colorado Economic Development Commission for a state income tax credit based on the payroll tax cost from creating new jobs. To qualify, companies must create at least 20 new jobs in the region and pay wages above the local average. Colorado has nine Procurement Technical Assistance Centers located throughout the state to help businesses compete for military and other funding. Key collaborations with the public and private sectors help aerospace companies prosper. An exceptional environment that attracts and retains quality workers Colorado has all of the amenities that both attract and retain a highly educated, productive workforce, including nearly 300 days of sunshine annually and unparalleled access to outdoor recreation. Other vital statistics include having among the country s highest percentages of physical activity and wellbeing and the lowest obesity rate.
