Do you want to see cool new Nokia phones, hot apps, talk with leading Windows Phones developers and jam? Then plan to visit the Nokia Lab at SXSW Interactive for happy hour from 4:00 – 8:30 pm on 12 March 2012.
Nokia’s R&D lab is being transplanted from its snowy perch in northern Finland and dropped into the middle of the warmer climes of central Texas just for SXSW. The Nokia Lab - a first-of-its kind, three-domed structure for SXSW (located at 2nd and Brazos), will give SXSW Interactive attendees an engaging, behind-the-scenes sneak peek at the latest Nokia has to offer.

Nokia will show off its newest Nokia Lumia Windows Phones, and host app demos from the likes of Foursquare, textPlus, iHeartRadio, Ask Ziggy, and Smart Tile Pro (details about the demos are below). Nokia and Windows Phone experts will be on hand to answer questions, tell you how to join Nokia Developer, and give tips about building apps. Later in the night, a live band and DJ will take the stage to keep the party going.
Guests will have the opportunity to check out the new Nokia Lumia portfolio of Windows Phones, including the much-anticipated Lumia 900 from AT&T and the recently launched Nokia Lumia 710 and Nokia Lumia 800, too.
On your way in to the Nokia Lab, be sure to get your Nokia Developer t-shirt and grab an energy drink. Then chill out while you peruse the lineup of new smartphones and talk with developers demonstrating their newest apps.
In between app demos, check out the rest of the Nokia Lab, test your foosball or ping pong skills, and enjoy complimentary drinks and appetizers. To keep up with everything that Nokia will be doing at SXSW, check out Conversations by Nokia. The blog will follow all the action.
The Nokia Lab is an experience you won’t want to miss. Come be amazing everyday with Nokia at SXSW. Ready. Set {Code}.
