Your startup is looking a bit slow there, tiger. Why not try a little SXSW Accelerator?

You’re driven. You’re an entrepreneur. You’re hustling. But you’d still feel like you could be moving faster, don’t you? Well, you’re in luck, my friend. There’s still time to throw your startup into the mix for the SXSW Accelerator, an opportunity to get your startup in front of a who’s who of judges—and all of the folks at SXSW Interactive.

This competition will be unlike any other. On March 11, 48 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 12, the top 18 companies will be invited back, and at the end of the day winners of SXSW Accelerator will be announced. The Music Accelerator follows on Wednesday, March 13 with a full day of programming in which eight music technology startups companies will pitch their products or services.

Plus, you’ll be at SXSW. There’s no better time of year to be in Austin if you’re a geek. And it’s arguably the best event to meet the types of folks to whom you’d like to be speaking, be they peers or potential customers.

If this sounds even remotely interesting, get on it. Applications are due by November 9. That’s this Friday.

So get to it.
