Episode 26 - Governor, Congressman and Presidential candidate Mark Sanford

The Building Charleston podcast takes a moment each week to meet the leaders changing the landscape of Charleston, SC with host Matt Chapdelaine from Laine Commercial Real Estate.   The South Carolina economy is booming, and the Charleston region leads the way.  In this episode we hear from Mark Sanford; the former congressman for South Carolina's first district (which is where Charleston is), as well as the former Governor - and until recently a candidate for President of the United States.  Mark was on the front lines when companies like Boeing, BMW, Volvo and many others moved major operations to South Carolina and the Lowcountry.  Learn what was important to those companies as they moved here, and what it was like leading the region during such an transformative time.   Mark tells the listeners what we need to avoid as we grow, and Mark shares a very exciting vision of what will take Charleston to the next level as we grow into a world class city.   You can listen to this podcast on your favorite podcast platform, or you can watch the Building Charleston podcast - and our guests - on both YouTube and Instagram.
