How to Host a BIG Meetup or Networking Event

I'll show you a strategy for hosting what I call a "Meetup within a Meetup." It is a divide and conquer strategy. At HUGE events like this- with over 200 attendees- there's no way you can meet everyone. But when you curate a sub-group, it can help you and your colleagues to meet more people early.
