The South Carolina Council on Competitiveness is a nonpartisan, business-led nonprofit organization focused on strengthening the state’s long-term economic competitiveness for its industries and residents. It generates practical, research-based insights into opportunities and threats, supports industry clusters that offer a competitive edge, and oversees education and workforce development initiatives to prepare South Carolinians for participation in a global economy. The council emphasizes collaboration across private, public, academic, and nonprofit sectors to advance its objectives. Headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina, it operates as a small-to-mid-sized entity within the state’s economic development landscape, engaging with industries and citizen stakeholders alike. A recent development is a collaboration with Fraunhofer USA to form the South Carolina Fraunhofer USA Alliance, a Spartanburg-based initiative that links the state with Germany.
