What Our Members Say

"A few years ago, downtown Denver felt uncertain. Today, it’s alive with energy—and the Downtown Denver Partnership played a huge role. Their leadership helped turn challenges into opportunities, bringing real momentum back to the city’s heart. A defining moment for me was joining DDP’s Urban Exploration trip to Boston. It was inspiring to see what bold ideas and strong partnerships can achieve. It fueled my excitement for what’s possible here. I’m proud to be part of this movement and can’t wait to see downtown Denver’s next chapter."

George Colbert

Helmerich & Payne

"Being part of the Downtown Denver Partnership means locking arms with fellow 'doers' committed to driving economic vitality and meaningful impact. At Clermont Eliot, we see DDP as a catalyst—transforming the central business district through investment, collaboration, and action. It’s where business and community come together to shape a stronger, more vibrant Denver for everyone."

Andy Cohen and Taunia Hottman

Clermont Eliot

"As a brand strategist, founder, and coach, I joined DDP to help ensure that Black-owned businesses and local residents—groups often underrepresented in civic spaces—have a voice in shaping Denver’s future. Through my membership and work on the Civic Engagement & Leadership Committee, I’ve been able to connect with cross-sector leaders, advocate for equity, and contribute to meaningful conversations about the city’s growth. It’s given me a space to plug in, show up, and be part of building a more vibrant, inclusive city."

Orion Brown

Brand Strategist | Founder & CEO, BlackTravelBox | Consultant & Coach

"As a manager of a residential community in downtown Denver, being part of DDP has been an invaluable resource. It keeps me connected to what’s happening in and around our neighborhood and helps me better serve our residents by staying ahead of downtown developments, events, and initiatives. The relationships I’ve built through DDP—both with other members and the DDP team—have created a real sense of community and support. It’s encouraging to be part of a network that’s working together to keep downtown vibrant, safe, and welcoming for everyone who lives, works, and visits here."
