RMMS History



Where Your Money Goes

The Rocky Mountain Microbrewing Symposium was founded by the Center for Biotechnology & Bioinformatics at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs.  Proceeds from your registration fees go directly here, which is a non-profit entity.  The Center was instituted in 1987 to serve as a catalyst in the commercial development of biotechnology and biomedical technology.  Dr. James Mattoon founded the Biotech Center.   Among other things, it performs basic research in yeast genetics and fermentation science.  Furthermore, your dollars go directly to symposium costs every year; this enables us to bring you a high quality conference for a nominal fee.  The connections made here are the best one can ask for.  A big thanks to you and our sponsors!  Cheers!
