Why We Love Dig South Events

Avery Akkineni

Dig South is the perfect mix of people who are super techy, I know there’s rocket scientists here but there are also a lot of people who are builders and innovators, and entrepreneurs who are doing things like this incredible NFT gallery.

DIG SOUTH provides excellent content that is both timely and insightful. Really solid stuff. My membership has proved time and again to be a great tool for networking and making significant connections across the region.

CMO & Managing Partner, Chief Outsiders

My session on transportation innovations was a blast – my only complaint would be that 50 minutes went by awfully fast, we could talked for much longer. Great Speakers!

Henry Gabar

Staff Writer, Slate Moneybox

This is one of the only conferences in my life I’ve been to more than once. And I believe there is an enormous opportunity for some of the biggest brands and companies in the world.
