SXSW is one of my favorite events – it brings together some of the most influential people in the tech world. Some call it ’spring break for geeks’. I’m proud to announce that BizSpark is a sponsor of SXSWi Accelerator this year. From the SXSW Accelerator website:

This event allows bleeding-edge companies to present their latest products and services to industry experts, early-adopters, bloggers, mainstream media reporters,  and leaders of the venture capital community. From online audio / video applications to the latest ideas in social networking tools and innovative web-based technologies, SXSW Accelerator will showcase what is new and what is next.

You may recall that Accelerator helped Twitter get off the ground a couple of years ago:

Accelerator will be held on Monday, March 16, 2009 from 10:00 to 4:00pm at the Hilton Downtown, 500 East 4th Street, Austin, Texas 78701

BizSpark’s Jacob Mullins is on the Advisory Board for Accelerator and Guy Kawasaki will be co-emceeing the event. And as always, if you want to join BizSpark, shoot me an email (anand.iyer@microsoft.com) and I’ll reply with an invite code.
