Ask HN: Entrepreneur/Hackers meetup in the DC area?
Hello everyone,
I am recent engineering graduate and moved to DC area for work. I am greatly interested in meeting entrepreneurs and hackers in the area and was wondering if you guys knew about any meetup events or groups in the area that are active. I'd love to meet fellow HN readers in the area.
- tocomment 16y agoI second this. You might try hacdc if you like electronics.
- sandipagr 16y agoThanks for the response. I actually did electrical and computer engineering. It'd be nice to at least network with people in electronics. I will definitely look into it. Thanks again.
- ohashi 16y agocould check out DC Startup Digest... I haven't lived in DC for a while but planning to move back soon. I subscribed a while ago to get a feel for what's going on.
- sandipagr 16y agoThanks, I just subscribed to it.

- anactofgod 16y agoI could list a few that I attend, but the better/easier thing would be for you to search meetup.com. It should provide you with a good starting point by industry and/or tech topic. The regional tech entrepreneurial organizations, like the Northern Virginia Tech Council also maintain lists of resources. Lastly, there are a few revenue-generating (Profitable?!?) startups that provide services back to the local startup community by organizing and/or making space available for events. The three that pop into mind first are Affinity Labs, 1410Q, and iStrategyLabs.
