Upcoming IBM sponsored Meetups - network with your peers

IBM is hosting meetups on a regular basis across a number of different topic areas. If you are new to the idea of a meetup, let me provide a little background.  A meetup group is a sort of local community, where people who share a common interest can come together to meet, share and learn, and network. Meetups often include a networking component either before or after the meeting, usually with refreshments, during which you can network with other members, meet experts, and engage in small group discussions with speakers and other attendees.

Getting Started

If you are new to meetups, access https://www.meetup.com/ and search for groups near you.

Leverage the Explore feature to find groups in your area that are discussing the topics that are of interest to you. For example, if you’re in New York City and interested in Machine Learning, enter the search term “Machine Learning,” select the distance from New York City that you’re willing to travel for a meeting, and you will be presented with a number of upcoming Meetups addressing that topic within the mileage radius specified.

You can explore groups, view upcoming events, and join any and all groups that look interesting to you. There is no charge to join a group, and you can join multiple groups. As events get scheduled by the Meetup Groups you have joined, you’ll be notified, and you can register to attend events that are of interest to you. And if you don’t see a group that matches your interests or meets your needs, you can always start a new Meetup group. 

There are a number of IBM sponsored meetup groups of interest to data scientists, as well as people working in cognitive and AI technology fields. On meetup.com, look for group names such as "Big Data Developers" "IBM Watson" and "IBM AI" in your area.  Here's a short list of some of the meetups that are happening in the next few weeks that may be of interest to you.
