Driving Healthcare Innovation at SXSW 2023

Real Chemistry is excited to be back in Austin for another year of health innovation at SXSW 2023. Heading into Real Chemistry’s 12th year of programming and my 13th at SXSW, I always look forward to the friendly faces, inspiring conversation, and of course, amazing BBQ.

Over the years, the Health & MedTech Track has grown significantly, and with the constant innovation and disruption occurring in the healthcare industry today, this year’s programming is not to be missed. For 2023, Real Chemistry is proud to bring together the industry’s most innovative leaders to provide badge holders with can’t-miss insights and what’s sure to be great conversation.
