Thats not a bad start.<br>
<br>
I would say the obvious places to canvas would be the Met and the University.<br>
<br>
I'm up for it if anyone wants to organise a time, perhaps someone there at each campus would point us in the right direction. Students Union perhaps?<br>
<br>
Also, are there any engineering groups, associations or organisations in this area of Wales?<br>
<br>
*plug* I run the South West Big Data meetup in Bristol we are close to 160 members now and we started last year with 4 people in a cafe. We have had companies like LinkedIn, The Guardian, Mclaren and HP to talk at our events. Sorry for the shameless namedropping but every group has to start somewhere!<br>
<br>
Also, with new members come opportunities for spaces! Perhaps it would be better to talk about spaces once there are more interested members.<br>
<br>

Swansea Uni don't have enough room for us now, but they will have a new<br>
campus ready in Summer 2015 if things go to plan, so it might be worth<br>
asking then. Of course we need somewhere a bit sooner than that :) As far<br>
as I know nobody has asked at the Met...<br>
<br>
I think once we've done the hard part - finding a space and setting up in<br>
it - we should approach local media to spread the word. If you build it,<br>
they will come!<br>

Good evening everyone,<br>
<br>
Since there were no objections to my proposed location, I've gone ahead and<br>
booked it.<br>
<br>
*Our first meeting will be at 7pm on Tuesday the 2nd of April, in the back<br>
room of the Vivian Arms in Sketty.*<br>
<br>
For those who don't know it, here's a map: <a href="http://goo.gl/maps/TRlGy" target="_blank">http://goo.gl/maps/TRlGy</a><br>
There's a car park almost opposite, and a variety of bus services from the<br>
centre which stop nearby. Food is served until 9, and drink until 11.<br>
<br>
See you all there!<br>
<br>

I saw that reply, shame eh!<br>
<br>
I was thinking more about flyering for members, rather than asking for a space. The more initial membership is = the bigger space the hackspace can afford. I know the Uni has a good computer science degree, which I suppose would draft in a few prospective hacker types there.<br>
<br>
As with Bristol, it is probably a good idea to plan for success, rather than just wait and see.<br>
<br>
But, I am a bit naive about the appetite for geeky meet-ups around here, so I could be massively overstating the interest.<br>
<br>
Suppose just wait and see who makes it to the meet.<br>

I hear they teach a decent engineering degree, too ;)<br>
<br>
I think flyering both universities is an excellent idea. Swansea's<br>
engineering dept shares its 13 lecture theatres with CS and maths I think,<br>
so if we put flyers in those we kill three birds with 13 stones, so to<br>
speak. I'm sure we can rustle up a few more like-minded students or former<br>
students by word of mouth, too...<br>
