2\. Join at OkGather:
[https://okgather.com/theme/edinburgh-tech-network-etn-edinburgh-tech-network?src=etn_mu_event_desc_how&discount=20_percent_off_food_and_drinks](https://okgather.com/theme/edinburgh-tech-network-etn-edinburgh-tech-network?src=etn_mu_event_desc_how&discount=20_percent_off_food_and_drinks)

Secure your place and join a group of people working in and around tech.

**Just arrive at the venue**

* Grab a drink, find the group, and settle in
* Ask the bar staff for the "Edinburgh Tech Network" table booking
* Expect a friendly, welcoming group and a great atmosphere. The gatherings are generally self hosted with support from the venue.

\~\~\~
These are relaxed gatherings rather than formally hosted events. **There’s no designated host leading the evening (instead, venue staff will direct you)**, everyone is there to meet new people, and the format allows conversations to develop naturally without structured introductions or activities. This helps us to keep the membership much more affordable for you.

**📍 Location**
We host events at relaxed venues in central Edinburgh:

1. Easy to get to locations
2. Pubs or bars with a good atmosphere
3. Spaces that are ideal for conversation 🍻

Spots are limited to keep the group high quality.
If you work in tech and want to meet others in your space, you’ll get a lot from this 👋
