The clock is ticking – we’re just a few days away from the Second Annual Silicon Prairie Party at South by Southwest Interactive and we want to express a huge thank you to our sponsors from across the region!
The event will again take place at the Lanai Rooftop Lounge on Sunday, March 13th. The fun begins at 9 p.m. and will last until at least 1 a.m with DJ Bone Head. We encourage you to RSVP on Facebook: “Silicon Prairie Party Presented by Hollrback.”
We had a such an amazing time last year and couldn’t have imagined putting on such an event without you. It goes to show the strength and support of our community and for that we’re both excited and humbled.
The event will be documented through photos, videos and tweets (check the hashtag #SPHB) on Sunday night, but in the meantime, take a look at the great list of sponsors and please tell them “thank you” when you see them out and about:
