SCBIZ to launch as statewide platform for South Carolina business news

A new generation of business media is launching in South Carolina. SC Biz News is evolving into SCBIZ — a unified brand built for the future of South Carolina’s thriving business ecosystem.

For more than two decades, SC Biz News has been the trusted publisher of Charleston Regional Business Journal, Columbia Regional Business Report and GSA Business Report. Now, under the new name SCBIZ, we’re bringing all that experience together into a stronger statewide brand.

Executives throughout South Carolina can engage with SCBIZ content on their terms — via our website, email newsletters, print editions and premier events that shape the business landscape.

With one unified website (scbiz.com), readers will seamlessly move between statewide and regional coverage, making it easier than ever to find the B2B news and insights that matter most. Daily digital newsletters will be consolidated into one statewide morning email newsletter and three afternoon email newsletters — one for each region, highlighting the latest business coverage in the Upstate, Midlands and Lowcountry.

SCBIZ will also include a monthly print magazine, set to launch in November in conjunction with the annual South Carolina Manufacturing Conference and Expo, hosted by SCBIZ, which will feature statewide business coverage and break-out sections highlighting the three regions that SC Biz News readers have grown accustomed to: Upstate, Midlands and Lowcountry.

In addition, SCBIZ will continue to produce a robust portfolio of business-related events, including Best Places to Work, the aforementioned manufacturing conference, one of the largest of its kind in the Southeast, as well as many others throughout the year.

Readers will continue to see coverage of the regions that matter to them with the same depth and dedication they’ve come to expect. But now, they’ll also gain more: more perspectives, more insights, more opportunities to understand the forces shaping South Carolina’s economy.

What SCBIZ will deliver:

The same great insights — more reach: Readers will still get the local, B2B insight they rely on, now with expanded statewide coverage.​

Unique and authoritative content: Executive profiles, data-driven lists, and deep-dive features give readers valuable coverage of South Carolina’s growing economy.​

Unmatched connectivity: One easy-to-navigate, intuitive site covering the Upstate, Midlands, and Lowcountry makes it easier to stay informed.​

Deep industry relationships: Our decades-long relationships with South Carolina’s business leaders ensure we bring you perspectives no one else can.

“This is about growth. This is about opportunity. And above all, this is about continuing to earn your trust as the No. 1 source for South Carolina’s business insight and information,” said Jason Thomas, executive editor of SCBIZ. “I’m proud to take this next step with you — and I look forward to showing you all the ways in which SCBIZ will serve you better. SCBIZ — the power of one.”
