At a 2011 WordCamp, Simon connected with other WordPress people for the first time. He started his local Meetup one year later. Now ten years later, after leading more than 150 in-person, online, and hybrid events, Simon looks back on one of the most rewarding and enjoyable hobbies he could have wished for.

In this session, Simon combines his own experience with the shared knowledge of Meetup organizers worldwide. This talk offers guidance to anyone interested in starting local Meetups, revitalizing dormant groups, or building sustainable local communities.
