NewsGator "Colorado Company to Watch" Coverage

By Melissa Risteff, July 10, 2009

Earlier this year NewsGator was named to the inaugural class of Colorado Companies to Watch.  Colorado Companies to Watch is presented by the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade in association with private and public organizations dedicated to supporting second-stage businesses in the state.

Now, Denver's NBC affiliate has also covered this achievement, saying that NewsGator "is being honored for innovating social networking to help businesses work more efficiently" and explaining that the designation is for "companies that have not only found a way to survive, but to thrive in this tough economy."
