It’s that time of year again, when people from all over the world descend on Austin for SXSW. We hope to see y’all out and about in Austin, but before you fill up on BBQ, make sure you swing by and check out the Yahoos who will be speaking this year.
We’ll be covering topics ranging from app accessibility and bots, to cyber security and women and diversity. We’re also proud to announce our very own Yahoo Music Editor, Lyndsey Parker, is being honored at the Monster Energy Women’s Ultra Mixer on Friday, March 17. And did we mention Tumblr CEO and Founder, David Karp, will be chatting all things activism?
Come find us in Austin – we’d love to say hello!
