Rob Wu and Leigh Durst, Co-curators of SXSWCares / SXSW4Japan join Esteban Contreras from Samsung in a panel moderated by Chris Noble. This panel will explore the grassroots SXSWCares / SXSW4Japan campaign that dominated SXSW in March of 2011. Find out how a renegade group of authors, consultants, and artists banded together to raise over $100k in online donations and hundreds-of-thousands in text donations for Japan Tsunami in a matter of days. Learn how the team rallied -- online and offline -- to establish a comprehensive digital footprint, conduct real-world outreach and how the movement spread to result in a 12 hour telethon, the mobilization of an entire city and a 47 song music album in a matter of weeks.
