A business technology consulting firm has expanded in the Lowcountry.

“We are incredibly grateful to receive this $50,000 grant which represents a significant investment in both our company’s future and our community’s economic value,” Modus21 CEO Peter Woodhull said in a news release. “This funding will enable us to expand our facilities and create new job opportunities, while positioning us to continue innovating and growing. As a small business, this support is transformative as it allows us to scale our operations, invest in our workforce and deepen our roots in this community.”
