Baxa Corporation has been recognized as a finalist in coloradobiz magazineÂ’s annual competition for Top Company. Established in 1988 by Colorado Business magazine (now coloradobiz), Top Company recognizes ColoradoÂ’s most outstanding businesses in nine business categories. Finalists were honored, along with senior executives, at a reception celebrating examples of past and current organizational success this past Thursday in downtown Denver.



"IÂ’m proud that Baxa is being recognized for the special work we do," acknowledges Greg Baldwin, company Chairman and CEO. "Our business is safety. Providing devices that help pharmacists safely mix and handle fluid medications has fueled three-fold growth since 1997. That focus on enabling great healthcare is expected to double our business over the next five years."



Nominations for Top Company were made through the first half of 2005. Companies then undergo a rigorous inspection process conducted independently by Deloitte and a panel of judges chosen from the business community. Top Company 2005 winners will be announced at an Academy-award style gala luncheon in September, hosted by 9News business reporter Gregg Moss.
