Hi! I work in IB in London and was wondering if anyone has tips on meeting new people? Would anyone want to go to a meetup in London?

Career Resources
I believe there are WSO meetups in London, checkout events on WSO (I don't know whether there are any events planned)
Otherwise: Gym, meetup (the app), hobbies, through friends, through social events (like church, street events, ..), other sports & recreational clubs
In recent years the dating app providers also moved towards connecting people as friends or business partners. ie hinge, bumble, .. check those out as well to find matching friends.
Sorry where do I see events on WSO (must have missed this)
Here it is https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/events :D
see posted link.
And feel free to create an event if you like, speak to the mod team here or I even think there was a London thread somewhere.
there are also discord, [redacted] and whatsapp groups for the London WSO folks.
I have at least 15 people from London/wso in my discord buddy list.
Interesting question
.
Similar situations and I was thinking of joining a casual sport, a dance class, or a chess/book club. Something along those lines...
If you're open to casual dating, Hinge is great too
I used to be a ballroom dancer ages ago. went to a salsa dancing event in Essex a few years back and there were approximately 3 women for each male dancing partner. If there are single men willing to go outside of their comfort zone, there is no easier way to meet girls.
I am a woman too about to move in London (I am from continental Europe) in July. Hit me up in pm so that we can connect and meet in London ☺️

I'm also in London so Ditto on the comments
Go talk shop in the local pub around Canary Wharf
There's a WhatsApp group that we had made for finance folks in London. There's people from different roles like IB/PE/PC etc in there.
PM me of the link doesn't work
