In the conference you could live stream the explanation about Steem on something like DLive. That way people will get an idea of what the meet-ups are like and you may have more folks showing up for the next one. For me personally the drive to Belgium would require too much time, or I would attend. Greetings!
This is a really great idea! By the way, where are you from ?
Short answer: The Netherlands. Longer answer: I grew up in the Caribbean and lived in the Americas for 80% of my life, which explains why I decipher Latin languages with relative ease, but not to perfection. Oh, you want to know where I live, LOL. I live in a small town about 11Km from Enschede, not far from Germany.
