GRAND RAPIDS – A blockbuster “meet up of meet ups” is planned for Feb. 8 at Open Systems Technologies when GR DevNight and SoftwareGR team up. Invited are some 30 local user groups, meetups, and software events to come share about their events and give coders a chance to meet others with similar interests, and maybe even create a few new groups. The evening will be a networking event and will include a light dinner (included with price of admission).

A few organizers may speak briefly about their events, but there will be no hour-long sessions like at a typical DevNight. Come, network, meet new members of the local software community, and help make Grand Rapids an even better technology hub.
