Connect with me at 5:30 pm on Thursday, November 15 in Austin at the Robert B. Rowling Hall (300 West MLK Blvd, RM 3.402) at the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas.

For this event, I will talk about last-minute tips for entrepreneurs who want to enter SXSW Pitch (the application deadline is 11:59 pm Pacific Time on November 15). I will also cover SXSW Release It, the competition for new launches that opens Friday, November 15. Additionally, I will review some of the most intriguing startup-related panels and presentations for March 2019.

Entry to this November 15 lecture at Rowling Hall is absolutely free, but please be sure to RSVP to reserve your spot.

In addition to lots of helpful information, one lucky attend for this November 15 event will win a complimentary badge for SXSW 2019. If you don’t win the badge, register before the end of the day on Friday, December 7 to save $300 on walkup fees. Special badge discounts for groups and for students.
