Is there a list of companies that has implemented either their own crptocurrency or went with the color coins approach into their business? I'm particularly looking for non-mining related companies that went with the color coins approach piggy backing on top of an existing cryptocurrency. Either they used it as a way of points or actual currency in their business to buy products/services.

I believe you can't find the such list at the moment. You should study descriptions of the assets. There are a few (might be five) blockchains with assets "on top".– RimantasMar 27, 2015 at 10:54

This question is too vague, like asking list of companies that use arrays in programming. Colored coins are programming abstractions(just a type of data structure) and when truly used for a technical reason(not for crowdsale) they are under the hood. (At work, I have used it as a mechanism to account for scarcity of a resource.)
