As Des Moines' startup scene continues to grow, it's great to see events pop up to provide informal opportunities to build relationships and meet new people. Startup Drinks has been a growing movement of cities across the nation organizing low-key "happy hours" for the local startup scene.

Geoff Wood of Silicon Prairie News and Shane Reiser of Startup Weekend were kind enough to work with Foundry Coworking to launch Startup Drinks Des Moines on Tuesday, March 23rd at Tally's rooftop bar in Beaverdale. It was a great turnout of local startup enthusiasts and talent and we're looking forward to seeing it grow every fourth Tuesday of the month, at Tally's.

We can't forget to thank KerberTech for sponsoring the event and buying everyone's first drink! See you next month.
