Welcome

Last night the Tate Center for Entrepreneurship at the College of Charleston hosted the first ever Green Business Networking event. Even with a minimal marketing effort nearly 40 people showed up. This was a sign that there is tremendous interest in green business in Charleston. While the monthly event will allow for plenty of connections between students, faculty, non-profit organizations and small and large businesses I thought that it would be good to keep the channels of communication open outside of the events. Thus I'm starting this blog as it's honestly much easier to get started than a brand new website (which I hope to eventually develop). My goals with this are to: share information about businesses in Charleston and the Lowcountry, enlist help for businesses that are looking to grow (or even just survive), help students and businesses link up, and occasionally spark debate on business and the environment. Thus I hope that readers of this blog will feel encouraged to share their ideas and thoughts with others through comments to the blog posts.
