'This year I’m concerned. I’m angry,' says one attendee on the ground at SXSW 2019
Chrissie Hanson is the Chief Strategy Officer at OMD Worldwide, and she says that the first two days at this year's SXSW have left her disheartened and angry.
Consumers shouldn't have to be the first line of defense against modern safety issues; the collaboration of Silicon Valley, private companies, governments, regulators, and citizens is required. Which is why, at the end of my first few days on the ground, I'm missing the sense of exhilaration that defined my previous three trips to South-by, when I couldn't wait to connect with friends and colleagues to share what I had seen, heard, experienced and learned each day. Instead, this year I'm concerned. I'm angry.
