Recap: October City Meetup!

Another month, a new city and the best of all October City Meetups!


By Ayesha Rizvi (Multimedia & Editorial Assistant, Women 2.0)

Our City Meetups kicked off in more than 10 cities across the world this month and we launched in a brand new city; Dublin, Ireland! From founders to investors to fabulous tech stars, this month’s City Meetups saw inspirational speakers, notable advice, great locations and plenty of valuable networking. Scroll through below to catch some of our favorite highlights from October City Meetups!

Hosted at The Chase in the suburban city of Sandyford in Ireland, City Meetup welcomed a new city to its networking club; hello Dublin! Our speakers included Jayne Ronayne, co-founder of KonnectAgain and MasterCard’s very own chief innovation officer, Garry Lyons. Big shout out to MasterCard for helping us launch in another new city! We couldn’t have done it without you.
