Semaphore Aids European Mission
The Central SC Alliance is a coalition of counties in the Midlands of South Carolina committed to economic development. An Alliance team of government, higher education, business, and economic development professionals participated in a European Mission last month. They enlisted Semaphore's help to create a pocket guide about the Alliance team for sharing with the team's target audiences in Europe. Semaphore produced a functional, attractive piece that met the goals of the Alliance. Semaphore continues to engage in projects for the Alliance, and we are proud to help them build the economy of central South Carolina.
