One of the most fun ways to get a peek into another person’s life is to experience their city like a local would -- with a homebase in a their space. LifeSwap takes the fun of living how a stranger does one step further. We’ve teamed up with AirBnB to give you a taste of what it’s like to step into someone else’s shoes. We can safely say that this is the best giveaway of any SXSW party around.
Day 4 is about the word on every marketer’s mouth. Everyone’s focusing on it, but it’s not a focused word. What does it mean exactly? Why does it matter? And how do we do it right? Attend small group workshops about mobile ads, mobile responsive site and mobile app development. Learn about the rapid rise of mobile browsing (and what that means to us) in our interactive globe installation. And hear from Ruth McCarthy, Founder of Mobili Media, about how to get caught up -- and then get ahead.
For one incredible day, you’ll have a front-row seat to unscripted fireside chats and engaging keynotes from fearless marketers and influencers who are pushing boundaries and setting new standards.

Michael Render, publicly known as Killer Mike, is a husband, father, activist, businessman and GRAMMY Award-winning artist. He is as synonymous with Atlanta as the iconic brands, Coca-Cola and The Varsity. Raised in the Adamsville/Collier Heights neighborhood on the Northwest side of the city, Render made a name for himself as an activist well before he ever recorded a single song. He was raised by his grandfather, a union member, and grandmother, a civil rights activist, meaning being socially and politically active came naturally.
Â
After releasing their third, self-titled album in 2017—the first to top Billboard Magazine’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart—Killer Mike and his partner El-P toured with Lorde over a 15-month span. In addition to wowing audiences with his lyrical genius, Render spoke passionately about suicide and suicide prevention. His remarks further endeared favor with fans across the world.
 Â
Despite his massive success and popularity, Render has always maintained a humble nature. He is a man of the people in the truest sense. When he isn’t performing to sold-out venues, Render is often found at his SWAG Barbershops on Roosevelt Highway, Edgewood Avenue and soon, Phillips Arena. He is a devoted husband to Shana Render, and the proud father of Malik, Aniyah, Pony Boy and Mikey.
