More than 2,000 groups get together in local communities each day, each one with the goal of improving themselves or their communities.

Why should I use Meetup?
Meetups are real people, with real connections, forming real communities making a real impact. Meetup is not about virtual
relationships, but face-to-face, honest-to-goodness interaction between neighbors.
It is a great way to meet other entrepreneurs or thought leaders, form partnerships, share ideas or get referrals.
Below is a slide put together by David Cesarini that outlines other aspects of Meetup for financial advisors.
