Meet Randy Gradishar
Gradishar’s path from small-town boy to professional NFL football player included four years playing under famed Ohio State coach Woody Hayes. Although his first mentors were his parents and his high school coaches, he recalls. “My mom and dad were Depression-era kids,” explains Gradishar. “The challenges they faced established the core values of determination, perseverance, a strong work ethic and teamwork; that nothing was impossible to overcome. Those values remained with my parents their entire lives."

BUSINESS & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS
A REAL BUSINESS PUBLICATION
So. Colorado is one of the steadiest and most concentrated economic development regions in the United States.
From aerospace and defense, to advanced manufacturing, to cybersecurity and dozens of other industry sectors, So. Colorado is now home to US SPACE COMMAND, five active military installations, and multiple industry clusters with a tremendous focus on workforce, education, and our nation’s security.
It’s also home to the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee, USOPC Training Center, UCOPC Museum, and 25 National Governing Bodies making it a prime destination for businesses in the amateur and collegiate sports industries.
THE MILITARY
Our military is one of the pillars of this unique community and its success.
Home to five active military installations – more than any other community in the US – we love our active duty and retired Service Members and Cadets and we want to show our appreciation through SOCO Digest each and every month.
We’re also keen to support the industries that support our military and space endeavors. Learn how your organization can join the conversation and be seen by others in this diverse and sophisticated business and innovation ecosystem.
ECONOMIC STRENGTH
Colorado Springs is the 39th largest GDP in the United States. Combine that with the surrounding communities of Pueblo, Monument, Canon City, Castle Rock and dozens more towns, So. Colorado is positioned perfectly to build and thrive various industries.
To ensure a strong and current economic knowledge base among our employers and workforce in the region, The Digest has partnered with the UCCS Economic Forum to distribute their Weekly, Monthly and Annual Economic Forum announcements. Led by William Craighead, Ph.D., readers, viewers, and listeners can get the latest in The Digest!
