Launched IndieBeers Remote meetup

IndieBeers is London's #1 Indie Hackers pub meetup. Due to COVID-19, we've made it remote for the foreseeable future, with details announced today. You can sign-up here:

https://live.remo.co/e/indiebeers-remote-london-meetup-/register

We're using Remo.co, as we think it best re-creates the experience of attending IndieBeers, which is always an informal event with no speakers, bells or whistles.

All you need to do is grab a (virtual) drink, join a table and get involved.

Conversation starters:

1/ How makers can create tools to help local communities and hospitals deal with COVID-19.

2/ The future opportunities and challenges of remote work.

Key details:

  • Thursday March 26th
  • 6pm-8pm GMT
  • Free entry
  • Max 50 attendees
  • BYOB :)

Remember to RSVP! Catch you there friends.

All sponsorship profits will be donated to https://covid19responsefund.org/ EDIT - I couldn't find a paying sponsor, so donated $100 of my own money.

      Hey Shiva! Nothing that does specifically what I want so far, but I’m open to suggestions.

      I could host some kind of video conferencing session on Zoom/Whereby for pretty cheap, but it’s difficult to manage when you exceed like 15 people.

      Tools like Remo and Hopin are built more specifically for managing events, including extras like:

      • registration pages
      • reminders
      • virtual tables you can move between
      • sponsorship opportunities
      • broadcasting with chat
      • customisable branding

      I’d love a cheaper platform that does these things, but haven’t found one so far.
