The South Carolina Research Authority, based in Summerville, announces three new leadership promotions: chief program officer, director of the Industry Solutions program and director of the SC Launch program.
The Greenville startup is a B2B identity infrastructure company that helps customers, primarily live event organizers and experience creators, transparently aggregate, manage and store customer identity information. The money will be used to help the company, founded by Harold Hughes, fund further development and expand its workforce.
“Their founder had an idea, took advantage of technological advances, and created a needed service in the events industry,” said Lee MacIlwinen, SCRA investment manager in a news release. “Bandwagon’s flagship product,
Aura, has been used internationally to manage and store customer information, in a transparent and secure manner.”
Bandwagon’s platform uses permission-only blockchain, encryption and multi-party computing to help customers partner with other stakeholders to safely and securely gather large groups, both in-person and virtually.
