SUMMARY:Upstream: Digital Tech Meetup at Second Draught
DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://luma.com/timbergrove Upstream: Digital Tech Meetup – Monthly Social 🍻 No stage. No slides. No panels. Just upstream operators\, engineers\, founders\, and digital leaders getting together over beer and pizza. This is the informal side of the Upstream Digital Tech community. A casual\, vendor-light happy hour for people navigating digital change in oil and gas and wanting real conversations. It’s not a presentation. It’s not a pitch night. It’s a room full of people who are actually doing the work. A place to: • Meet others working at the intersection of upstream and technology • Trade field stories\, lessons learned\, and hard truths • Talk AI\, IoT\, data\, automation\, and deployment realities • Build real relationships without a formal agenda Whether you’re deploying technology\, evaluating it\, building it\, or leading teams through it\, you’ll fit right in. Come as you are. Bring a friend. Stay as long as you like. 📍 Second Draught @ The Ion District\, Midtown Houston 🗓️ Second Thursday of every month | ⏰ 5:30 PM 👉 Reserve your spot. Space is limited. \nSource and tickets: https://iondistrict.com/event/upstream-digital-tech-meetup-at-second-draught-3/2027-01-14/
