We are delighted to announce that Cyber-Duck will attend SXSWi in Austin, Texas as part of the UKTI digital mission this year.

South by South West Interactive is one of the largest interactive industry events in the world, and takes place alongside the two other parts of the festival, Music and Film. Over 5 days some huge names will be speaking at the spectacle, including the likes of Seth Priebatsch, and Christopher "moot" Poole. There will also be hundreds of meet ups, lounges, panels and workshops, each presenting its own unique opportunity.

Cyber-Duck are going along as part of the UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) “Digital Mission” scheme, which is designed to help UK organisations expand into foreign markets and develop relationships abroad. The mission is open to applications from any UK SME in the digital sector, and Cyber-Duck were selected by Chinwag as one of just 37 organisations to visit the event.

We are hoping that some strong relationships can be developed, and knowledge of the market can be gained during the trip.

It will be a pleasure to join some other great, UK based companies in visiting a highly prestigious, internationally renowned event like SXSWi. We’ll be sure to keep you updated while we’re there! If you’re going along too, feel free to get in touch.

You can find out more about the event on the SXSW official website.
