Data DescriptionSingle RowBusiness entity name, id, type, status, and contactCollection ModeNot specifiedLong DescriptionColorado Department of State (CDOS) Colorado Business Entities (corporations, LLCs, etc.) registered with the Colorado Secretary of State. The business registration goes back to the 1800's, with over 1 million records available. It contains business name, principal address, mailing address, owner name, owner address, entity status, type and creation date. As of March 2018 there are over 1.7 million unique business id's registered with the state of co, and there is a (very rough) average of 2,000 new businesses added each week. Entity and Entity Id are the business number from CDOS (also the unique identifier) and registered business name. Principal Address, however, is not always guaranteed to be the physical location of the business entity’s main operation. Some businesses can be registered in CO but have an address outside of the state or may list a PO box and there are businesses with locations that don’t have a public access entry point. Mailing Address is the mailing address of the business owne, and the Agent address may be the address of the agent or in some cases has the same address as the business owner.Related DatasetsJoinable to: Business Entity Transaction History, Trade Names for Businesses in Colorado, Trademarks for Business in Colorado based on "entityId"Collection MethodNot specifiedNewest Record in DatasetNot specifiedOldest Record in DatasetNot specifiedData Collection InstrumentNot specifiedField Names, comma delimitedentityid, entityname, principaladdress1, principaladdress2, principalcity, principalstate, principalzipcode, principalcountry, mailingaddress1, mailingaddress2, mailingcity, mailingstate, mailingzipcode, mailingcountry, entitystatus, jurisdictonofformation, entitytypeverbatim, entitytype, agentfirstname, agentmiddlename, agentlastname, agentsuffix, agentorganizationname, agentprincipaladdress1, agentprincipaladdress2, agentprincipalcity, agentprincipalstate, agentprincipalzipcode, agentprincipalcountry, agentmailingaddress1, agentmailingaddress2, agentmailingcity, agentmailingstate, agentmailingzipcode, agentmailingcountry, entityformdate, locationDate of Initial Dataset CreationNot specified
