Upcoming Events at The Dogwood West 6th
Description
It's finally here the first ever DEF Austin Drink & Think!
Event Details
Please join us, along with Texas Defense Innovation Forum (TDIF), and Capital Factory at The Dogwood on 24 April at 5:00 PM as we discuss innovation in the national security community and how individuals and businesses here in Texas play a role in shaping the present and future when it comes to innovation.
The Defense Entrepreneurs Forum is a non-profit network of problem solvers in the military, government and private sector that work together to increase innovation and support disruptive thinkers in the national security space. The mission of DEF is "Inspire - Connect - Empower" and involves not only monthly gatherings around the world, but periodic DEFx events, an annual conference, and ongoing collaboration via Slack, Facebook and LinkedIn. DEF communities usually meet once a month to hear innovative leaders, entrepreneurs and authors share their stories and to get new ideas flowing in a casual environment (where uniforms and rank are left at the door).
If you are a military member, work in government, are an entrepreneur focused on national security, or find the idea of helping solve tough problems enticing, then the DEF's monthly Drink & Thinks are great ways to learn more.
FAQs
Why should I register? Taking the couple minutes it takes to register helps the local DEF team to better prepare the planned space and coordinate with the restaurant for everyone who plans on attending. Thanks in advance!
What are my transportation/parking options? Parking is available in the broader area and the venue is a decent rideshare away from most places.
How can I contact the organizer with any questions? Feel free to message DEF any questions you may have on Facebook in advance, or shoot us an email. We don't like spam, but are interested in just about anything else that falls into DEF lanes, so, when in doubt, reach out! We are, after all, about connecting people.
