Pub crawls are customary for giving newcomers to Warsaw the chance to get to know the city and meet new people. There are many organizing groups on Facebook and TripAdvisor, and a website dedicated to the custom (pubcrawl.pl). Meetup offers several Warsaw-based English language groups, including one for expats and another for language exchange, and a Discussion and Inspiration group for Digital Society and Culture. The Professional Women’s Network has an active chapter in Warsaw, and there is the Warsaw Network: a forum of think tanks linked to the Warsaw Enterprise Institute which holds its own events. You can rent a place at dozens of coworking spaces dotted around the city, including several Regus locations, for as little as 25 zł ($6.50) a day. Most of the startup events in Poland take place in Warsaw, such as Pixel Heaven, Women in Tech Summit or Venture Café Thursday Gatherings, attracting many tech specialists and entrepreneurs, while Venture Café Warsaw’s District Hall at the city’s Cambridge Innovation Center (cic.com/en/warsaw) describes itself as the “first public innovation center in the world.”
