dbt Meetups are gatherings dedicated to helping you own your analytics engineering workflow. Events will focus on the impact of dbt in the data community and professional development tools for analytics engineers. Expect big-picture conversations related to the data stacks, data operations, data teams, modeling, testing, dashboards, etc.
