Publisher - Lisa Jones ljones@scbiznews.com
FROM THE PUBLISHER Dear Reader,
A
s we go to press with our third edition of Market Facts, the country continues to work its way out of a multiyear recession. A staggering budget deficit, downgraded credit rating and international credit crisis, as well as the possibility of a double-dip recession loom over the economy. It’s enough to make anyone want to run up the white flag.
Research & Events Coordinator - Elizabeth Feather efeather@scbiznews.com
Businesses small and large employ hard work, determination and entrepreneurship across the Upstate to reinvent themselves and find success in new opportunities. The past few years have brought change and success. Most businesses have faced difficult decisions as they try to retain staff, maintain the bottom line, or simply stay afloat. Others have found in these uncertain times opportunities to start new ventures or expand their operations.

But our country and our region have experienced such setbacks in the past. Our region has transformed itself from a faded textile center into a global manufacturing powerhouse and high-tech research center.
Decision-makers know uncovering those new opportunities requires keeping up with business news and trends. Access to data is critical to ensure a complete business news picture. Our research, editorial and production team, Allison Cooke Oliverius, Scott Miller and Kevin Greene, have worked hard to improve the readability of this year’s Market Facts and to create an even more useful tool for learning about the trends affecting our region. The facts and figures are not only important for business planning and research; they are an important element of business success. This year, we have added new data sets throughout the publication and changed many of the graphs, charts and tables. To make the information easy to read, we have included art, shading and highlighting of important facts; we also included footnotes and explanations. I believe you will find Market Facts to be a useful tool in business planning and research. Market Facts is a useful companion publication to our annual Book of Lists. You can pair the largest companies in the Book of Lists with the statistics and other data in Market Facts for a holistic view of the region’s business community. I want to recognize our title sponsors, TD Bank and UBS, and all of our section sponsors and advertisers for enabling us to provide this valuable resource for the region’s business leaders and decision-makers.

Unemployment remains stubbornly high, but new businesses are created and established businesses expand weekly.

Doctors, business leaders & engineers Greenville Hospital System University Medical Center took a big step toward becoming a major medical school under the brand and accreditation of the University of South Carolina School of Medicine. Clemson University’s Center for Emerging Technologies at its International Center for Automotive Research campus in Greenville — also known as CU-ICAR — will open a 60,000-square-foot building where dozens of emerging or established companies can expand and develop technologies that complement research of Clemson faculty and engineering students. And Clemson’s graduate business school relocated to the Falls of the Reedy, putting its students in a position to rub elbows with Greenville’s dynamic business center. This section sponsored by
Excellent Report Card Each year, every public school in South Carolina receives a report card as part of the state’s education accountability system. The reports are accessible online and demonstrate each school’s and each school district’s performance. An “excellent” rating means the school or district’s performance substantially exceeds the standards for progress toward the 2020 S.C. Performance Vision. Of the 23 school districts in the Upstate, Anderson 1 and Greenwood 52 were the only two districts to receive an excellent Absolute rating. SEE CHART PAGE 14 For more information on the report cards, visit ed.sc.gov.

Growing representation South Carolina is among the eight states that will gain a new seat in the U.S. House of Representatives based on 10-year growth. The reapportioned Congress will convene in 2013. It will be the 113th Congress. South Carolina has not had a seventh Congressional district since 1933. The addition of a Congressional seat also means South Carolina will increase from 8 to 9 electoral votes in the 2012 election. Source: U.S. Census Bureau; S.C. House of Representatives
