Chattanooga leaders are heading to Austin, TX, this week for one of the world’s largest innovation festivals: South by Southwest.
The week-long event brings together leaders in tech, film, music, and media for conferences, showcases, and screenings featuring professionals from around the globe.
Chattanooga will have a presence thanks to Launch Tennessee, which is hosting an activation called Tennessee House. The space will highlight startups, technology, and innovation happening across the state — including right here in the Scenic City.
Chattanooga Day is happening Saturday, March 14 and will feature:
- Mayor Tim Kelly discussing why startups are choosing Chattanooga
- Leaders from UTC and The Company Lab sharing how the city’s smart traffic technology helps reduce congestion
- City representatives talking about how Chattanooga is emerging as a leader in quantum technology
