The USA led the world in computer programming contest championships from the 70’s thru the 90’s, but we haven’t won since 1997. Why? Has computer science changed? Are we teaching the wrong things? Are developers from other countries better prepared? Join us for our July Learning Lunch as we explore these ideas with Dr Steven Halim, a most successful programming coach from the National University of Singapore. Dr. Halim will be coaching the Bob Jones University team as they prepare to compete in programming contests at the International Level and appears at our meeting by special arrangement.
Registration closes soon, be sure to register for our unique networking event. We’ll be meeting at Barley’s Taproom to see if we can’t help each other build the knowledge economy in South Carolina. It’s free if you register online.
Recognized nationally as a high growth area for more than 30 years, the 10-county Upstate region that includes the counties of Abbeville, Anderson, Cherokee, Greenville, Greenwood, Laurens, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg and Union is projected to continue attracting new residents and businesses for many years to come.
As we look toward the future, it is imperative to have a shared vision that illustrates what matters most to current residents of the Upstate and that can help ensure that in the decades to come our region grows by choice and not by chance.
To help us better understand efforts to create a shared vision of growth for the Upstate community, we’ve invited Dean Hybl, Executive Director of Ten at the Top to discuss the efforts of his organization to survey the community and develop a multi-community plan.

Presented by: Dean Hybl, Executive Director of Ten at the Top
