Travel-friendly events and apps for SXSW participants
Skift Take
An opportunity to schmooze with buzzy travel startups, or if you do it right, learn how every topic discussed at SXSW from technology to marketing impacts the tourism business.
Ireland will try to convince everyone it is the next tech hub, American Airlines unveils its travel and AAdvantage APIs for the first time, and Airbnb execs will be out in full force singing the praises of the sharing economy at SXSW this year.
In part one of Skift's guide, we outline the events taking place on Friday and Saturday that touch on some aspect of the travel and tourism industry whether it be panels with leaders from today's most popular travel startups, design sessions, book readings, or meet ups for finding fellow travel geeks.
Check back this weekend which events to check out Sunday through Tuesday. If you're hosting or attending an event that we missed, let us know in the comments and we'll add it!
Sessions on Friday:
3:30 pm: WeHostels co-founder Diego Saez-Gil will share experiences and best practices on building successful global teams across border
