South By Southwest (SXSW) has long been one of the staple events that help make Austin a standout city. For the first time in years, SXSW 2020 was canceled due to COVID-19. Many have wondered what this annually anticipated event will look like moving forward. Music, film, and tech lovers fear not: SXSW has announced SXSW Online 2021. This all-new digital experience will bring in keynote speakers from around the world, movie screenings, showcases, networking opportunities, and more.
“The challenge of building a new future is one that we’re excited to tackle. This has been such a year of change and we, like the entire world, are reshaping our perspective on how we connect. We’re pleased to be working on SXSW Online as part of our program for 2021, and regardless of platform, we will continue to bring together the brightest minds from creative industries worldwide.” – Roland Swenson, CEO and Co-Founder
