#HealthTech events during SXSW 2019

Knowledgeable SXSW health veterans are available to help you plan your schedule while you enjoy a complimentary breakfast and gourmet coffee bar.

Energizing Health @ SXSW is a historic gathering during SXSW focused on creating opportunities for community advocates, entrepreneurs, venture capital, health organizations, industry and philanthropy to innovate, collaborate and activate initiatives aimed at eliminating systemic barriers and building healthier communities.

The home base for our most creative programming is our SXSW Health House: a pop-up community center at Cooper’s BBQ sponsored by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Aetna Foundation, Cambia Health Foundation, St. David’s Foundation, Novartis, and other partners. What you’ll find here:

• Complimentary all-day buffet and drinks
• Full day of innovative programming
• Art installation from the National Academy of Medicine, illustrating how health equity works in communities across the U.S.

A morning full of robust programming from Austin’s health innovation community. In this open forum, participants will discuss how entrepreneurs can work together with community leaders to ease disparities and enrich health services for marginalized groups in Central Texas.

• Panel One: Health Equity Challenges in Central Texas
• Panel Two: Expanding Patient Advocacy in Underserved Communities
• Panel Three: Leveraging Technology to Build the Blueprint for Healthy Communities

How Facebook Causes Measles, the Real Computer Virus: There is a new meaning of the term Fred Trotter, Andrea Downing and David Harlow submitted a compliant to the FTC regarding Facebook’s treatment of patients on its platform. A day latter, Congress asked Facebook to account for these new issues. This session will show how the issues that submitted by the patient community are abused on Facebook, in some cases by anti-vax misinformation campaigns, which have contributed to recent measles outbreaks.

Artists and activists at the front lines of innovation and community change share stories of their journey towards health equity.

Interviews with – and stories from – community artists, activists, entrepreneurs and health care providers. Community leaders discuss issues that shape our sectors, including: designing for inclusion, diversifying board and founders leadership and when tech makes disparities worse.

There has been much bleak speculation around the impact of new technologies on jobs in healthcare, but can clinician-centric UX change the game? We’ll review the near and longer term impacts of technology advancement, dramatic increases in provider demand, and explosion of care models that will effectively allow physicians to choose when and how they practice. Join others who are affecting this vision of the future, as we discuss the implications of improvements in healthcare technology and service design on caregiving and the clinician lifestyle.

DJ, complimentary drinks, and buffet.

Celebrated patients’ rights activist, Regina Holliday, talks about her art and welcomes the Walking Gallery.

There will be pinksocks, smiles, and hugs!

In 1997 Tarana Burke created #MeToo and in recent years the conversation has shifted culture in significant ways. This conversation will explore what this looks and feels like in health and tech and how it’s informs what is needed to create health equity.

“Femme! Experience” Founder Bernadette Pleasant and the Health Equity Cypher will facilitate this workshop with the help of movement and live drums to facilitate our health and wellness – and give us tools to create space to truly Imagine Health. Come ready to move!

“Innovation” sounds cool – but Flint still lacks clean water, children have been separated indefinitely from their families at the US border, trans women of color are being murdered and assaulted, indigenous women are being murdered and are missing, we still need to say “Black Lives Matter” and parts of Puerto Rico are still recovering.

Interviews with and stories by artists, activists, entrepreneurs and health care providers about issues that shape our communities. Come for the stories. Stay for the solutions.

It’s a discouraging reality that, even among insured populations, racial and ethnic minorities are less likely than members of the majority population to receive preventive health services. Join us for a conversation around the critical gaps in our communities that influence the ability to live a healthier life. From education to housing and women’s health, we’ll explore steps to collectively combat racial and ethnic disparities.

• Dwayne Proctor, Chairman, NAACP Foundation
• Dr. Joia Crear-Perry, Founder and President, National Birth Equity Collaborative
• William Buster, Executive Vice President of Community Investments, St. David’s Foundation
