GrowCo has announced the Sixth Annual Growth Summit to take place on November 18th at Pastides Alumni Center (UofSC) in Columbia, South Carolina.
The Growth Summit is South Carolina’s up and coming boundary-breaking event for entrepreneurship and innovation, featuring a full-day+ of tactical, quality content and high-engagement experiences delivered by world-class speakers right in the heart of South Carolina — downtown Cola, SC.
The Growth Summit conference is a 2021 recipient of the South Carolina Department of Commerce Office of Innovation’s Relentless Challenge grant series. With the mission of progressing and supporting technology-based economic development projects, commercialization of new ideas and the next generation of industry-leading companies, the Relentless Challenge targets strategic investments in localized initiatives.
“The South Carolina Department of Commerce’s investment in the Growth Summit through the Relentless Challenge grant is an exciting win for the Columbia Metro area’s founders and entrepreneurs. The Summit is a homegrown celebration of entrepreneurship and innovation, starting as a passion project within ERG Payroll & HR, to one that now has an incredible amount of forward momentum and buy-in at the state-wide, county, and local level.”
Erin Curtis, Program Manager, GrowCo
