Founded by Carson Gibbons, DallasMeetup, in just its third event since its inception April 2024, is poised to host over 1,000 networkers at its big-tent, industry-agnostic mixer at The Rustic November 14th. DallasMeetup is brand new, and organized by practitioners across a variety of verticals who simply wanted a lower-barrier-to-entry networking event that didn’t discourage attendees from networking across a diverse range of ages, industries, and commitment levels.
DallasMeetup, is free to attend, doesn’t require membership, doesn’t charge dues and doesn’t have sponsors cutting into precious networking time with a pitch. At DallasMeetup we are all about connection, and we’re unique in that we tell you who’s going to be in the room ahead of time.
