Hi all,

I'm flying into Seattle on the 9th and will be in-between Seattle and Portland until mid-February. Any fun startup/technology meetups or events going on? I've never been to the area for very long, so interested in checking out the startup community.



Hey there, pre-welcome to Seattle! Seattle has a pretty active startup community, and most of the events are quite well captured on Startup Seattle's calendar: http://startupseattle.com/events/

Otherwise, let me know when you're in town, I'd be glad to show a fellow hacker newser around ;).


Great thanks, I'll let you know when I'm around!


There are tons of meetups in Seattle! Check out meetup.com and we also have Beer && Code at Substantial if you are a developer.

FYI: The Seattle Tech meetup isn't really about tech it's a sales pitch type thing. Some people like it I personally would never go back.


Awesome, thanks a ton!


As @samiur1204 mentioned, that's a great place to find events. For info on what's happening in Portland, I suggest hitting up @adron on Twitter.


Thanks!


For Portland you should check out Calagator: http://calagator.org/


Will do, thanks!
