230+ sessions curated by the SX community, for the SX community.
The two-step online process
PanelPicker® was developed to encourage the SXSW community to enter proposals and have a significant voice in Conference programming. Community votes comprise 30% of the final decision plus input of the SXSW Staff (30%) and Advisory Board (40%). Together these percentages helped to determine the final content lineup. Proposals ranged from music and film to tech and culture and more across our 2021 Themes.
Sessions that are part of today’s announcement include top-level speakers from notable companies, universities, and creative industries including
Billboard,
