It's our fourth year at SxSW!!!

Started in 2009, The-Event-Formerly-Known-as-Houston@SXSW-And-Then-HoustonTXSW is now C2xSW – a full-fledged outreach initiative under the wing of C2 Creative, Houston's first 501c3 nonprofit Creative Accelerator. 

From March 7 to March 12, C2xSW will take you on "The Official Unofficial All of Where the Wild Things Are Interaction Packed Adventure Extravaganza!” through the Buyosphere, Silicon Prairie, and New Orleans -- showcasing Houston and proactively engaging inter/national thought leaders and influencers to connect them with Greater Houston creators and innovators.

C2xSW is a public event (no badge necessary!) concocted by many of the same people behind awesomenesses(es) like TEDx Houston ... so be prepared for surprises!
