Talent development is a team sport that requires public, private and educational institutions to work collaboratively to be successful. Numerous barriers keep existing residents from fully participating in the labor force. These barriers can range from access to transportation and childcare to increased commute times and traffic congestion. To begin to address this challenge, the Talent 2.0 Team was established.

Talent 2.0 is made up of representatives from:

  • Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce
  • City of Fort Collins Economic Health Department
  • City of Loveland Economic Development Department
  • Larimer County Economic Development Department
  • Larimer County Workforce Center
  • Loveland Chamber of Commerce
  • Northern Colorado Economic Alliance
  • United Way of Larimer County

We hired one of the nation’s top economic and workforce development consulting firms, TIP Strategies, to guide us in the development of a talent plan and are pleased to release that plan to public.
