WiE Houston Happy Hour Sponsored by Relativity (09 Jun 2026)

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 22:30:00 GMT

Dear Houston Chapter Member,

The Houston eDiscovery community is getting together again and you’re invited.

Join Women in eDiscovery Houston and Relativity for an evening of cocktails, apps, networking, and the kind of conversations that remind you why this industry is really about the people behind the work.

And yes, despite the name, men are absolutely welcome too. The more great people and conversations, the better.

No presentations. No panels. Just good drinks, great company, and a chance to connect with friends old and new.

Tales from the Trenches: How to Avoid Being the Villain in Someone Else’s eDiscovery Story (10 Jun 2026)

Wed, 10 Jun 2026 22:30:00 GMT

Join us for a wine‑and‑cheese‑fueled eDiscovery discussion where we examine real‑world missteps, breakdowns, and questionable decisions that have complicated—or outright derailed eDiscovery matters.

Set against the Vancouver skyline on the Deloitte rooftop, this moderated, highly interactive session invites attendees to share candid eDiscovery stories involving problematic eDiscovery matters. Using yes/no paddles, participants will weigh in on key moments (because sometimes it helps to know you’re not alone), followed by open discussion on why those matters were challenging, what could have been done differently, and how to avoid these mistakes in the future.

The goal?

✔ Laugh a little

✔ Vent a little

✔ Learn a lot

✔ And walk away with practical and actionable insights that will make your future projects smoother.

Event Details

Wine & cheese reception

Date: June 10, 2026

Time: 4:30 – 6:30 PM (Event to begin at 5:00 PM sharp)

Location: Deloitte Rooftop, 410 West Georgia Street, Vancouver (indoor space provided if weather does not permit)

This event is sponsored by Deloitte

Whether you work in litigation support, eDiscovery or IT, this is your chance to swap stories, gain perspective from “the other side,” and learn how to avoid becoming that story someone tells at a future event.

Registration is required. If you're a member, you will have received an email from us. If you did not receive that email, or have questions about joining WiE, please reach out to us at vancouver@womeninediscovery.org.

We look forward to seeing you there.
