This page features panels at SXSW Interactive 2013 that will be presented within the BiT House at the Hilton-Garden Inn.
Additionally - this page includes panels that will take place outside of the BiT House that self-selected BiT as a tag, or have panelists or subject matter that we think is of particular interest to blacks in tech. If you would like to have a panel included on this page, please email the SXSW schedule page url to us at info@wearebit.com.
This is an experiential workshop designed to help aspiring entrepreneurs design experiments to quickly validate their ideas. We will help you identify 1-2 experiments that can be executed within a week. You will leave armed with a clear action plan for quickly testing your idea. If you have an idea for a new venture you'd like to explore, this workshop is the perfect opportunity to get started.
The workshop will be lead by Brian L. Shields, the Co-Founder of IncubateNYC, an educational community and incubation program for entrepreneurs. After seven years of advising and investing in startups, Brian has developed a keen understanding of the actions steps Founders should take for validating their ideas and assumptions
