10 Amazing Speakers at SXSW 2020!
The Forrest Four-Cast: November 20, 2019
Scheduled March 13–21 in Austin, SXSW 2020 includes 22 different tracks that cover everything from “Advertising & Brand Experience” to “Fantastic Future” to “Tech Industry & Enterprise.”
Some of the most impressive speakers in these 22 tracks are part of the Featured Speaker lineup. Ten speakers for next spring that I am particularly excited about are as following:
- Arlan Hamilton (Founder and Managing Partner of Backstage Capital)
- Bryony Cole (Future of Sex founder and podcast host)
- Guy Laliberté (Cirque du Soleil, One Drop Foundation and Lune Rouge founder)
- Kwame Onwuachi (James Beard Award-winning chef and author)
- Madame Gandhi (electronic music artist and activist)
- Melanie Perkins (CEO and co-founder of Canva)
- Van Espahbodi (Starburst Accelerator co-founder & Managing Partner)
- Dr. Rana el Kaliouby (Author and co-founder and CEO of Affectiva)
- Ray Dalio (Founder, Co-Chief Investment Officer and Co-Chairman of Bridgewater Associates)
- Yo-Yo Ma (world renowned cellist)
In addition to the stellar roster of Featured Speakers, the Keynote lineup is equally remarkable(with names like Erin Lee Carr and Kim Gordon).
