The type of companies that the Colorado Springs international airport would be interested in partnering with include the Office of Internal Affairs of Colorado Springs, which was an agency responsible for the coordination of various international activities and programs in Colorado Springs.

Many local businesses and organizations were helped by this office to get involved in the international business and trade. During each business year, the Office used to organize many programs and special events, which increased the Colorado Springs exposure to other areas and gave a boost of international dealings in this area.

This non-profit organization became affiliated to the World Affairs Councils of America in Washington D.C. The Office was also affiliated to the World Trade Center in Denver, the United States Export Assistance Center, the International Trade Office, and the Pikes Peak Library District.
