2. IGDA

The "largest non-profit membership organisation in the world", its Scottish branch hosts monthly meetings and it has special interest groups ranging from artificial intelligence to quality of life.

4. Rookie Oven Meet Up

A monthly meeting for the Scottish start-up community to support itself, with no talks, presentations or set agenda.
