“An issue our community is facing is connectivity,” says Matthew Dosch of Comporium. The connectivity issue is not a broadband one, as Comporium, has been a leader in bringing high-speed Internet and other cutting-edge communications services to the Rock Hill, South Carolina area for decades. The challenge has to do with the ease of moving within the downtown area and to the local university.

As a community leader, Comporium, which also has its headquarters in downtown Rock Hill, decided to sponsor a community bike-share program to provide an alternative way of getting around.
