Sensor Electronic Technology Inc. (SETi), a leading global supplier of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV LEDs), today announced plans to expand operations in Richland County. The $55 million investment will create 40 new jobs.

By investing in an innovative training and recruiting program, Richland County aims to create a talent pipeline to increase the number and diversity of software engineers and meet local demand in the area’s growing technology industry.

A new educational tool from the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District (RSWCD) features lessons aimed at the next generation of conservationists in Richland County and beyond.

Residents interested in how Richland County can help fund initiatives in their community can sign up for an upcoming workshop or training session to learn more.

Organizations will have the opportunity to learn about Richland County’s grant programs at a pair of virtual workshops this month.
