IDA is planning the "Singapore Alley” showcase at the annual South by South West (SXSW) Interactive Trade Show from 9-12 March 2014.

The annual South by South West (SXSW) Interactive Festival will take place on 7-11 March 2014 in Austin, Texas. Approximately 65,000 attendees visited the SXSW Interactive Trade Show during the 4 day period in 2013.

IDA is inviting technology startups and players in the technology startup community (eg. Incubators, accelerators etc) that are looking to gain exposure in the US market to be a part of the action.

Participants can look forward to:
• Exhibition space to showcase your products/services within the “Singapore Alley"
• Booth crawls at the "Singapore Alley"
• Networking opportunities/ events
• Personalised business matching for one-on-one meetings
• Possible media interviews

The participation fee for each start-up/organisation is US$500. Startups will need to handle and cover their own travel and accommodation. Limited numbers of tradeshow-only passes will be available to startups.

You would need to purchase your own conference badges separately if you would like to attend the conference sessions at http://sxsw.com/attend .
