The "Great Recession" officially ended in mid-2009. The world’s largest economy, however, is experiencing a slower than normal recovery. Manufacturing remains tepid, high unemployment persists, the housing market is struggling, and consumer-spending habits may have permanently shifted. Businesses today face pressures unforeseen in generations past; pressures that require a new path forward, paved with ingenuity, fortitude and resilience. Signs of growth are nonetheless apparent and Colorado stands as one of the nation’s leaders in economic growth. Revitalizing core competencies and accessing new avenues of growth are paramount to thriving in a highly linked and ever-changing global economy.

Attendees at the 2012 Rocky Mountain Corporate Growth Conference will learn how business leaders are responding to the growth challenge and prospering in the face of a continued pattern of economic ups and downs.
