industry mixer

Business social gathering

An industry mixer is a social event where professionals from the same field gather to network, exchange contacts, and build relationships.

Unlike formal conferences, mixers emphasize casual mingling over structured presentations: I met my business partner at an industry mixer.

The atmosphere typically involves drinks and conversation rather than lectures.
