> [@ashutoshbhakare](#): > > Aurangabad Hi, Welcome to the Ansible Forum. I look after the Ansible Meetups, you might have seen, though we are in the process of moving to Meetup Pro, as part of that we are considering having a single meetup group for all of India, currently we have 11. We would love to include Aurangabad in that. Do you have a venue and some potential talks, and an idea of when for the first meetup? ---

> [@Improving Ansible Meetups](https://forum.ansible.com/t/improving-ansible-meetups/43491): > > Hi folks, It’s been a long time since we talked about Ansible Meetups, so I thought we should fix that. Some of the ideas head follow on from the great discussions we have around [reducing fragmentation in the Ansible Communication platforms](https://forum.ansible.com/t/proposal-consolidating-ansible-discussion-platforms/6812). Summary We have migrated the active Ansible Meetups to a [new home on Meetup Pro](https://www.meetup.com/pro/ansible) to create a shared space for Ansible users, practitioners, technologists, and all-round automation enthusiasts. Meetup Pro allows us to connect Ansible events on a global scale… Contains some more details ---
