StartupDrinks this Wednesday
When: Wednesday October 9th 2013 @ 6pm until late
Where: The Winking Judge (2nd floor) @ 25 Augusta Street – Hamilton, Ontario
StartupDrinks Hamilton is a monthly presentation-free and sponsorship-free networking event for Hamilton’s startup community to make connections over drinks and relax a little! Feel free to talk about projects, ideas, funding, technology… or just shoot the breeze!
Normally StartupDrinks has been happening on the 2nd Thursday of every month. This month Lion’s Lair is taking place that day, so it’s been pushed to Wednesday of this week. Maybe it’s time to keep it on Wednesday nights? The Winking Judge does their cheap wings that night!
StartupDrinks has been going on for the last 2 years now, and it’s a purely social pub night. Most events provide value through some specific educational content, like a series of talks or demos. StartupDrinks provides value by getting a chance to really to get know other people beyond the exchange of business cards.
So for example we’ve had people work one another on projects or as employees after connecting at StartupDrinks events. We’ve had a lot of “informal education” at these events too, as people can meet with their peers to describe specific problems they are having and get tailored responses. It’s also pretty typical to come away with some new friends at these events!
So if you’ve been thinking about coming out for awhile, make this Wednesday the day!
