Team Frontier Raises a Glass
This is what Team Frontier looks like when we get together to discuss strategy (actually, this was after the discussion)! One of the reasons we’re able to create a calendar of premium summits, focused discussion sessions and a whole host of member benefits is that we’re a team in sync and committed to facilitating connections, collaboration and deal making across the global upstream industry – and a little bit of socialising along the way is always a good thing!
