Charleston, South Carolina -- December 18, 2014 -- The Charleston Digital Corridor, along with title sponsors Benefitfocus and Google, is pleased to announce the 2015 Innovators' 5k Race (iFive:K) will be held on April 30th, 2015. Proceeds from the annual race benefit CODEcamp scholarships and other STEM related education programming.
Confirmed sponsors include Charleston's fast growing tech companies, BoomTown, Blue Acorn, SPARC and Blackbaud. "It is awesome to see our tech community come together for a fun evening of competition and networking while supporting the further development of talent in Charleston," said Digital Corridor Director, Ernest Andrade.
