Launchpad opens Tech Village, flagship startup campus in Greenville

Launchpad Tech Ventures will be adding Tech Village, its members-only startup campus and new headquarters, at the former Pepsi Building on the Poinsett Highway Corridor in Greenville.

Tech Village occupies the historic Pepsi Lab, a landmark of Greenville’s industrial past now repurposed for a new generation of innovation. The 6,000-square-foot campus offers 24 private offices and 24 dedicated desks for founders and teams in the Launchpad community, alongside structured programming, capital access, and embedded technical execution.

“Greenville has strong early-stage activity. What it has needed is density,” said Alan Blakeborough, President of Launchpad. “Tech Village puts founders, operators, and capital under one roof, inside a building that has been part of Greenville’s story for generations. We built this for the companies that will write the next chapter.”

Tech Village serves as the first fully integrated expression of the Launchpad model, which already operates incubator and accelerator programs across four South Carolina locations. Members gain workspace at the campus along with access to Launchpad’s programming and network of founders, mentors, and investors.

“Joining Tech Village was an easy decision,” said Cam Lawson, Founder of LinkSync and one of the campus’s first members. “You walk in and you are surrounded by people building tech companies. The energy, the programming, and the proximity to other founders make it the best place in Greenville to grow a startup.”

Tech Village anchors the Crescent Startup Community at Crescent One, developed by Hartness to concentrate early-stage activity in Greenville. Launchpad members also receive reciprocal access to amenities at Flywheel Coworking locations across North Carolina, extending the community’s reach beyond South Carolina.
