Birmingham Tech Network (BTN) - Evening Drinks (December)

Birmingham Tech Network's December evening drinks at the Slug and Lettuce on Brindley Place, 19:00 to 22:00. No talks and no slides: the group runs deliberately informal nights for people working in tech to swap ideas and have useful conversations. The regulars are software engineers, product managers, data and AI people, and startup founders and operators, so the room skews towards people building things rather than selling to them. RSVP on Meetup, then ask the bar staff for the Birmingham Tech Network table. Free. Why go: the most reliable standing fixture in the Birmingham tech calendar, and the last one before Christmas, which usually means a bigger turnout. Best for anyone new to the city's tech scene who wants a low-effort way in.
