Not sure that’s the solution. I think the issue is poor attendance of existing events, not lack of events.

- jimberlage 3y agoMy perception in a non-major metro is that the existing events are all really low quality, and that the quality passion project ones are gone. There are plenty of meetups for people trying to get me to buy their SaaS, but shared interest groups that don't stand to make money from their events have evaporated.
- ivalm 3y agoI host a Meetup just to meet new people interested in startup. I started it because there wasn’t a startup focused Meetup in my area. It’s hard for me to imagine that the $70/6 months is what prevents someone from hosting a high quality Meetup. There is so much more time value (and even money) to hosting high quality Meetup than the fee they collect.
