March Madness continued support, growth, and the SXSW Experience

March 7 – 10, 2016

It is time to fly to Austin Texas. We are invited by the International Accelerator to attend the SXSW Education and SXSW Interactive. SXSWedu® fosters innovation in learning by hosting a diverse and energetic community of stakeholders across a variety of backgrounds in education! The four-day event affords registrants open access to engaging sessions, interactive workshops, hands on learning experiences, film screenings, early stage startups and a host of networking opportunities.

We had the opportunity to meet with some of the largest and the best Education companies and publishers in the world including Pearson, McGraw-Hill as well some of the most cutting edge innovators including Guy Kawasaki and Max Ventilla, the founder of ALT School that received last year $100m funding from Founders Fund, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan’s foundation.

MyeTutor was excited to be one of the Greek startups that were featured in SXSW Interactive International Accelerator’s start up program, sponsored by the Hellenic Initiative. We found ourselves surrounded by warm hearted people willing to share with us and were given the opportunity to exhibit our online tutoring platform, pitch, and meet predominately with local – Austin based- entrepreneurs, investor and educators attending the International Accelerator and the SXSW Interactive event.

SXSW Interactive is an incubator of cutting-edge technologies and digital creativity, the 2016 event featured five days of compelling presentations and panels from the brightest minds in emerging technology, scores of exciting networking events hosted by industry leaders and an unbeatable lineup of special programs showcasing the best new websites, video games and startup ideas the community has to offer. From hands-on training to big-picture analysis of the future, SXSW Interactive has become the place to discover the technology of tomorrow today.
