Lagos dbt Meetup #7 (in-person)

We're excited to host our first IN-PERSON Lagos dbt Meetup in 2025, organized by Young Data Professionals Community. Looking forward to learning, socializing, and seeing new and familiar faces.

Our venue has capacity limits, so please only RSVP if you intend to come. If you need to cancel last minute or change your RSVP status on the Meetup to "Not Going."
