Which Raleigh Meetups are good to meet entrepreneurial programmers? (Durham: chapel, businesses)

[lovebrentwood]

I have a lot of good domain names, a lot of ideas, and no funding.

I want to create multiple Internet-based businesses using my domains, but I'd like to partner with one or more knowledgeable programmers (male or female) to help develop the sites and also to help with crowdfunding and marketing -- and then eventually sell.

I would love to join a Meetup group to get to know programmers before sharing everything and before going into business with them.

Can anyone recommend any good groups in Raleigh? Thanks.

From what I have seen, many folks are members of multiple meetups.
You might join a general meetup to meet people, and to be seen.
And, have an elevator speech ready. Too much Red Bull, and short attention spans...



There is a variety of folks come out to this meetup:

It is a large group that has been around for years.

Thanks. Despite its name, it appears most, if not all, of the meetups for that group have been held in Durham.

I prefer to stay in Raleigh.

Whoops. I haven't been for a couple of years. They always used to be in Raleigh.

Troll the membership list...?

There's a lot of tech out in the Durham/RTP direction.

If you're serious about this kind of topic you should probably be a tad more flexible on this, just saying. A lot of startups come out of the American Underground in Durham.

The Python meetup group trizpug meets in the three locations rotating (Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill).

Meetings — Triangle Python Users Group: TriPython (formerly TriZPUG)

I'm a Python/Django coding entrepreneur myself. But I don't come up with the ideas, I contract with companies.

I thought in 2018 I thought we were past "I have a great idea, looking for someone to do all the work"

Not up to that part yet. They need someone here to type in the search function on Meetup for them first. THEN they want the free labor.

So, Erin and LB,

What does it take to bring you together?
Coffee?

Oh, and funding?
