Colorado’s most valuable company leaves—Weeks after protests outside its Denver office

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice On February 17, Palantir Technologies posted a single sentence on X: “We have moved our headquarters to Miami, Florida.” There was no press conference and no detailed explanation. https://twitter.com/PalantirTech/status/2023780511051809010 At the time of the move, Palantir was the most valuable publicly traded company headquartered in Colorado, with a market capitalization in the tens of billions of dollars.
