Clemson-fostered business leaders to be featured at Innovation Roundtable

CLEMSON — Three entrepreneurial startups spun off from Clemson University will share their stories during the Clemson Renaissance Center’s Fall Innovation Roundtable.

“Launching a Technology Start-Up in the Upstate: A Conversation with Clemson Affiliated Spin-Offs” is scheduled from noon to 1:30 p.m. Friday at the Greenville Chamber of Commerce boardroom on Cleveland Street. The panel discussion costs $15 and reservations can be made at http://www.clemson.edu/centers-institutes/renaissance/events.html or by contacting Pris Foster at priscif@clemson.edu.

Panelists include Michael Bolick, founder and CEO of Selah Technologies LLC in Pendleton; Dee L.
