Houston Energy & Business Mixer: Connections After Work

Houston Energy & Business Mixer: Connections After Work

Better professional connections do not need another conference.

After a full workday, the last thing many professionals want is another presentation, panel or forced networking exercise.

Houston Energy & Business Mixer: Connections After Work is designed differently.

This is a relaxed professional networking evening for people working across:

• Energy and energy-adjacent industries
• Technology and data
• Consulting
• Operations
• Business development
• Sales and marketing
• Professional services
• Entrepreneurship
• Project and program management

Other Houston business communities

The majority of the evening is reserved for actual conversation.

There are:

• No speakers.
• No panels.
• No workshop.
• No public pitching.

Instead, attendees receive a few simple tools designed to make introductions easier and follow-up more useful.
