Digiday is at SXSW. We’ll profile startups that solve real problems for brands, agencies and publishers; report the scuttlebutt outside the convention hall; and shoot video interviews with digital media leaders.  Our coverage is made possible through the sponsorship of Vitrue, the social media management platform.

Agencies have flocked to SXSW in force this year to hobnob with clients and align themselves with the newest startups and digital technologies. But according to AKQA mobile director Tina Unterlaender, a large part of the appeal is also the opportunity to observe and recruit talent, particularly in areas such as mobile.
