We are usually confined to a handful of experiences in our entire lifetime. These experiences are usually that are inspiring and life changing. This year I shared an experience with a group from New Orleans that did just this. A group that headed to Austin, TX for a tech conference called South By Southwest Interactive (SXSWi) with the city on their shoulders and something to prove. I’m humbled to give you an inside look at what we shared on our trip.
A Band Of Local Tech Geeks Determined To Take Over Austin
The SXSWi NOLA trip kicked off on March 11, 2010 but the spirit of the trip is deeply rooted in last year’s experience in 2009 when locals from within the tech group Net2NO went to Austin, TX to support Matthew Tritico & Chris Schultz who were presenting on a panel. Last year’s trip was the catalyst that set off reactions which caused the New Orleans technology community to blossom into what it is today: strong, vibrant, and rapidly growing. This year was about continuing the tradition of taking a road trip style journey from New Orleans to Austin to become ambassadors for the city.
