A few weeks ago I attended what I will call a "meta meetup" – it was a showcase of business and technology meetup networking groups in Northeast Wisconsin. The event was called Meet the Meetups and was a local version of a similar event held in the Milwaukee area.
Following the event I reached out to the organizers and shared with them how I wished something like this took place a couple of years ago when I moved to the area. My quest for such groups when I first arrived here was nowhere near as bountiful as what I encountered at this gathering in Green Bay.
As one of my goals for the coming year is to immerse myself more in technology – both in general and local – I am sharing this list of meetup groups here. Perhaps it can help someone looking now as I did then, and perhaps I will see you at one of their events?

I would like to share one that was not at this event, but is also a worthwhile networking and learning opportunity. Women in Technology Wisconsin hosts monthly events and networking, and is not only for women – I know, I have attended one of their events.
If you know of other networking opportunities in Northeast Wisconsin for business and technology, please share them in the comments of this post.

Hiya Mike,
Lettuce compare notes as the year progresses. I’m going the other way and will be shedding technology. Course I’m old and not looking to put grub in the fridge - ;-)
Breaking out all the acoustic instruments. Probably keep one valve amp and an electric six string going.
Getting ready for the winter walkabout. Going to live dangerously and go with paper maps again. My Wife is a lousy navigator and the arguments over directions breaks up the monotony of the drive.
Wishing you and your a wonderful Christmas season.
