With the annexation of Daniel Island in 1990, the Cainhoy District is Charleston's new frontier. The growing success of the Cainhoy District can be attributed to several factors including state-of-the-art infrastructure, unparalleled location, high quality public services, waterfront access and a beautiful corporate campus on the master-planned island town, Daniel Island.

The Cainhoy District is home to some of the larger software companies in the Corridor, including Blackbaud and Benefitfocus and companies like Belimed and NanoScreen that support the medical and life sciences community.
