Guess what you haven’t done yet, procrastinator? That’s right. Applied to the SXSW Accelerator for startups

Rick Turoczy on November 16, 2011

Oh the SXSW Accelerator. That’s right. Your startup was going to apply for that. But you’ve got plenty of time. I mean, you know. The application is only due FRIDAY.

So why don’t you get on that? Like right now.

What’s the SXSW Accelerator, you say? Well, it’s an awesome program that gets your startup on stage in front of one of the most influential interactive crowds in the world, for one thing. For another, it’s a deadline toward which your team can work.

And I know how you like deadlines. Like Friday. Did I mention Friday?

I’m telling you. You want to be part of this.

This competition will be unlike any other. On March 12, forty-eight companies battle for your taste-making, trend-setting attention, leading to a fireworks display of innovation. Connections will be made and careers launched. On Tuesday March 13, the top eighteen companies will be invited back, and at the end of the day winners of SXSW Accelerator will be announced.

Why are you still here reading? What the hell is wrong with you?

Go. Shoo! Get to filling out your application. And I’m looking forward to seeing you on stage at SXSW 2012.
