Had a bad run-in at the Summit coworking space in Denver last month
I was working at Summit last month and tried to join a group for weekly freelancer meetups, but the vibe was so cliquey I couldn't even get a word in with anyone. It made me realize these structured networking events can actually push people away instead of helping them connect. Has anyone else found better luck just chatting in the kitchen instead of forcing those awkward group introductions?

Respect hannahj49 but the structured stuff actually works for some of us shy types.

Skip the organized stuff and just hang by the coffee machine. I've met way more people by asking about their laptop sticker or complaining about the printer than at any speed networking thing.
