In honor of our recent launch, @WalmartLabs would like to extend a warm welcome to the local tech community and invite you to take a sneak peak under the hood into our next-generation development lab, chartered with taking the world's #1 retailer into the future of Social Commerce.

This gathering will take place on Wednesday evening, July 13 from 6:00-8:00pm @WalmartLabs temporary HQ in Downtown Mountain View. Our new state of the art office will be open by the end of the year and located in San Bruno (across the street from YouTube).
