The Iron Yard teaches coding classes to entrepreneurs needing to learn the skill, and also provides startup support for entrepreneurs looking to get off the ground. Most importantly, the Iron Yard serves as a networking hub through which a number of different professionals (programmers, designeers, investors, business managers, event coordinators, etc.) flow. This is most significant to Wofford students because is provides a centralized place for students to look for professional expertise or connections to other third parties.</span></span>

 <span style="font-size: medium;">Also of importance is a capital network in South Carolina Angel Network (SCAN). SCAN is "an association of angel groups and early stage investors located across the Palmetto State." SCAN is a significant source of venture capitalist funding throughout South Carolina, especially in areas of more extensive business. In January 2015, SCAN launched another sub-network, the Spartanburg Angel Network, which carries out the same purpose of SCAN and its other sub-networks, but is specific to the Spartanburg area. Spartanburg's network was spearheaded by John Bauknight, a local success and business owner (of a restaurant and brewery in Spartanburg). The Spartanburg Angel Network is comprised of business owners and investors looking to grow their money through venture capitalism, which is of great interest to Wofford's entrepreneurs. Some faculty and alumni of Wofford have contacts with John Bauknight, and the Spartanburg Angel Network could potentially be a valuable resource for collaboration and partnership.</span>

Cole McCarty is working with The SPACE to develop a Makerspace, which students (and faculty) will be able to use for prototyping, design, and 3D modeling. The Makerspace would have such equipment as a 3D printer, which Wofford already has, lazer cutters, computers equiped with modelling software, and more.</span>
