Project Forge, the code name given to the applicant, has more than 6,000 employees, including some at its U.S. base in New Jersey, but none in Colorado. Tucson and Nashville are competing with Denver for what will become the company’s new U.S. office.

“We are excited about the opportunity to work in Denver and Colorado. It seems to be a great fit for us,” said an executive with Project Forge who provided only his first name, Richard.
