COLUMBIA, SC – October 20th, 2010 – Immedion is holding a grand opening ceremony Thursday for their new data center in the SCRA USC Innovation Center, Columbia, at 1000 Catawba Street. The fully-renovated facility houses knowledge-based companies and Immedion is their first tenant. Immedion’s Columbia office is their second of two enterprise-class data center facilities in the state of SC.

“Opening Columbia has been an exciting milestone for our company,” remarks Frank Mobley, Immedion’s CEO. “Locating our second data center in the Innovation Center enables us to provide services to businesses in the Midlands as well as throughout the state of South Carolina. In addition, the provisioning of a second, geographically diverse location allows Immedion to provide uptime for critical technology beyond the capabilities of any single data center location.”
