Ask HN: Y Combinator-minded local meetups for socializing and networking
I'm a bit of a newcomer to YC but I feel at home in the community. I've been working on my own idea for a business for a few months now. It seems that many here are like me, give or take the execution time.
A problem for me is that while I engage with many of you online, I know none of you in person. I'm sure many of us would be interested in an in-person meetup whether it's to discuss ideas or look for any partnerships. Or it could also be something of a weekly happy hour that serves as a support group so that entrepreneurs get out of the house and engage with society. :)
One of the first important steps of starting a company is building the right team. It seems that many could benefit from a YC meetup (that is, people who are part of the community but may not have been a part of the YC program) due to the nature of being like-minded in starting a company and certain approaches to that. Also, it would be a chance to meet people that are beyond your network.
Does something like this already exist? And if not, how many would be interested?
(I'm located in San Francisco btw.)
