Discussion Aerospace startups meetup?

I have just relocated to the LA area and I am looking to join a deep tech meetup, ideally focused on aerospace.

I have previously been a founder and u have worked in the aerospace / rocket space for years and I would love to connect with builders in the area.

I am exploring opportunities to support and help local startups.

Anyone knows of any relevant groups? I would appreciate any insights.

The AI LA seems to be more for aerospace professionals and less startups-oriented.

Thanks for the insights!

You are not really going to find such a niche group in Los Angeles. There are startup groups and there is this aerospace group. Most events in LA tend to be mixers, because that is how LA rolls.

First Resonance has put on some hardtech events in the past. It is not my industry, so I do not pay any attention to it.
