SXSW PANEL PICKER VOTING IS LIVE!

Yes, it's that time again and now we are focused on 2023... so, of course it is only natural that we are seeking the opportunity to share the story of the USA's World Expo legacy that is actively being sought by numerous civic and business leaders.
Our panel will share about the Global Impact that World Expos have already contributed to the USA and how the next natural step in the legacy is for Minnesota to host the next great American World's Fair in Minnesota in 2027.

Here's how "Southby" voting works... 1/3 of a sessions scoring to be presented is via public voting, so if you are a Friend of Minnesota and want to show the world that the World Expo movement is ready to host the world, take a moment and share your vote and feel free to comment too!
