In May, we hosted our first Tech Cocktail Dallas Mixer and Startup Showcase. We worked with the amazing team at Startup Texas (part of the Startup America Partnership) and got to showcase some of the area’s most interesting early stage startups, both online and off.

Special thanks to our Tech Cocktail Ambassador Trey Bowles @treybowles, serial entrepreneur and Co-Chair of Startup America Partnership: Texas (an organization focused on helping entrepreneurs in Texas create businesses and jobs within the community).
