Celebrating Diversity in Business: SXSW Hosts Diversity Business Mixer for Entrepreneurs and Creatives

Austin entrepreneurs and creatives from all backgrounds are invited to attend the SXSW Diversity Business Mixer on Thursday, June 13 at our headquarters. This evening is a celebration of like-minded professionals in the business world, offering an opportunity to network and collaborate.

As Jason Ottley, SXSW Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Director, said: “SXSW is known globally for its Conference & Festivals, where diversity in expression and the convergence of cultures are the foundation of our success. However, DEI is not just limited to the stage; it is deeply ingrained in our corporate ethos and reflected in our year-round initiatives.”

Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this event provides a perfect opportunity to meet new people, share ideas, and form valuable connections. The evening will feature special musical guests Pierce Washington and Loners Club, adding to the vibrant atmosphere of the mixer.

The event will take place from 6 to 8pm CT at the SXSW Center (1400 Lavaca Street), with parking available in the building’s attached garage. Be sure to bring your parking ticket for validation and business cards for networking exchanges. RSVP today to reserve your spot and be part of this exciting event.

Special thanks go out to Front Row Live (FRL) and Flor de Cana for co-sponsoring this event. Stay connected with SXSW News and our social media channels for more opportunities throughout the year to connect, collaborate, and celebrate diversity in business communities worldwide.
