South by Southwest, otherwise known as SXSW, or if you’re in the know: Southby, is going on right now and Seagate is in the middle of all the action.
Why is Seagate there?
Because like any storage company, much less technology company, the creative industry is one of the largest users of storage, and most influential. SXSW offers “the unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. Fostering creative and professional growth alike, SXSW is the premier destination for discovery,” as the conference’s website indicates.
Seagate is not new to providing creative professionals the storage technology they need to harness their talents. Just look at most of the customer stories highlighted on Seagate’s website.
This is the 5th year Seagate has participated at the event, and this year Seagate adds some social media flair to the mix. Seagate’s social media manager Rich Harris is on-site shooting photos and video, tweeting the action, and sharing the experience on www.seagate.com/sxsw. You can also follow all of the action on Twitter by using #sxsw.
What’s more, Seagate is going bigger this year will an all out booth on the show floor (booth # 924) complete with the latest products. Attendees will even be able to pick one up while at the show, should the impulse buy, or need for immediate storage arise.
If you’re gonna be at Southby, drop Seagate a tweet, or share your experience by commenting on this post.
If not, well, feel free to follow all the action.
