Colorado River Valley Economic Development Partnership

Triple Point teamed with Alvarium Economics and SMG Consulting to develop a forward-looking economic development strategy for western Garfield County, CO, a region heavily influenced by the boom-and-bust cycles of oil and gas drilling. While drilling continues to be the primary economic diversification will clearly increase resilience. The strategy focuses on the best way to create “better jobs closer to home” and is based on a custom, data-intensive economic model developed for the project. The model simulates alternative development scenarios to ensure the adopted strategy will be realistic, attainable, and optimal.
