NewsWhip at SxSW 2017

NewsWhip will be in Austin, Texas, for SXSW 2017, from March 11 to 14. Here’s how you can meet us. 

It’s early March, which means that half the media and tech industries are getting ready to fly to Texas for South by Southwest, while the other half are watching the hashtag activity in envy.

NewsWhip will have a number of appearances in Austin from this weekend to the middle of next week. If you or your colleagues are heading to the festival, make sure to put some time aside in your diary to meet with our team.

We’d love to meet and talk about social distribution trends, social data, and how NewsWhip helps leading newsrooms, brands and agencies.

Here’s where our team will be during SXSW:

  • We’re co-sponsoring the first ever Digital Journalism Rocks meet-up on Sunday, at German Haus @ Barracuda, 611 E 7th St, Austin. Digital Journalism Rocks is a super engaged group of journalists and publishing professionals with a deep passion for digital media and audience building.
    Stop by to grab a free lunch while talking to a bunch of the most innovative people in the media industry about the latest trends in journalism and tech. Register here.
  • NewsWhip CEO Paul Quigley will be running through NewsWhip’s technology and capabilities at 10.40am Monday at the SXSW Pitch Stage in Exhibit Hall 2.
  • Finally, NewsWhip has a stand in the Ireland area (Aisle 1300 – 1400) of the main Expo Hall in the Austin Convention Center. Drop by to learn more about how we help brands and publishers, and how our tech works. Our team will be happy to show you how our new content analysis platform NewsWhip Analytics works. There’s also a Happy Hour each day from 3pm, so be sure to drop by.

If you can’t find us, just tweet @NewsWhip, or drop a line to hello at newswhip dot com at any time.
See you in Austin.
