This November, Afrotech Music will take place in Austin, TX from November 1-5. Headlined by Hip-Hop artist Rick Ross, the second annual global event will feature a slate of performers including DJ Spin, Soulection’s DJ Hunnybee, Joe Kay, Andre Power, and Jadaboo.
The musical fest is part of the 2023 AfroTech Conference, the country’s largest Black tech convention where over 20,000 Black innovators gather to discuss the future of technology and rising trends, and network with like-minded experts and recruiters.
“Being the headliner at AfroTech Conference’s music event is more than just a performance to me,” says Ross.
“It’s an opportunity to inspire the next generation of hustlers, creators, and innovators. It’s a chance to showcase the power of hard work, dedication, and staying true to your dreams.”
The conference draws some of the industry’s brightest individuals and most recognizable companies, ranging from star tech investors to major executives across several technology fields. Attendees will enjoy live musical performances as well as hands-on activities. There will also be a diverse array of Summits centered on women, sports, health/medtech, product development, engineering and technology innovation.
Executives from media conglomerates and companies such as Netflix, YouTube, Adobe, Sales Force, Google Play, Morgan Stanley, Getty Images, Grammarly, AT&T and more will also be present.
