It would be advantageous to have the data from the New Tech Colorado map in an excel time-series format.

Hi Laura,

I understand a time-series which is a data format for time bound data but would you mind explaining your use case for this data.

How do you intend to use the time-series? Are you looking at trends of jobs added? Are you looking at trends of companies added? Are there are reports that your thinking about? What are you hoping to achieve by having this in excel?

Thanks and I'm looking forward to your use cases.

Hello Paul,

Thanks for responding.

I am looking for this data to see trends over time. The Governor is interested in entrepreneurship and innovation in the Colorado. We are doing a project and this information would be very useful. Attached is an outline of our project for your information and below are my responses to your questions.

1) How do you intend to use the time-series? We would put the data and analysis of the data in our report. 2) Are you looking at trends of jobs added? Yes 3) Are you looking at trends of companies added? Yes 4) Are there are reports that your thinking about? Yes, see the attachment 5) What are you hoping to achieve by having this in excel? Visually see the trends over time and graph the data to put in the report.

Let me know if you have this data. It would really be great to have and we would of course source the data appropriately.

Thanks,

Laura
