Since covid, these events are no longer running. We want to restart Tech Meetup to reboot the Glasgow tech scene and to get a new generation of people attending and running events.I'm at Strathclyde Student Union on John Street but it's closedStrathclyde have recently opened a new student union where the event it held. It's at 51 Richmond Street
