RJ Scaringe to Speak at SXSW 2025 on the Future of EVs and AI

If you’re into electric vehicles, sustainable tech, or just love seeing how the world is shifting toward a cleaner future, SXSW 2025 has something big lined up. Rivian’s founder and CEO, RJ Scaringe, is set to take the stage as a keynote speaker on March 11, 2025, from 4-5 PM CT, diving into what’s next for EVs, artificial intelligence, and how we rethink mobility in a changing world.

Titled “The Moment We’re In: Transitioning How We Move, Think, and Change The Planet,” Scaringe’s talk will focus on the massive shifts happening right now—how we move away from fossil fuels, how AI is reshaping industries, and what it all means for the future of transportation. With Rivian leading the charge in software-driven electric trucks and SUVs, there’s no doubt he’ll bring some fresh insight into where things are headed.

And that’s not all—Rivian is coming to SXSW in a big way. The company has officially signed on as a headlining sponsor for the next two years, bringing tons of exciting experiences to Austin. Given SXSW’s unique mix of tech, music, and culture, it’s the perfect stage for Rivian to showcase its brand and vision for a sustainable future. Expect interactive exhibits, hands-on EV experiences, and maybe even a few surprises.

SXSW has always been about big ideas and cultural shifts, and this year’s lineup reflects that more than ever. Alongside Scaringe, the conference will feature over 45 speakers across technology, film, television, and music, all tackling the big questions of the moment.

And here’s something exciting—RivianTrackr is looking to attend SXSW 2025 as media to cover the event. We’re just waiting for confirmation that we’ve been accepted, and if we get the green light, we’ll be bringing you firsthand coverage straight from Austin.
