We are thrilled to announce that the #Docker #meetup community has reached over 150,000 members!

Thanks to you, there are 275 Docker meetup groups, in 75 countries, across 6 continents.

Big shout out to Ben Griffin, organizer of Docker Melbourne, who organized 18 meetups in 2016, Karthik Gaekwad, Lee Calcote, Vikram Sabnis and Everett Toews, organizers of Docker Austin who organized 16 meetups, Gerhard Schweinitz and Stephen J Wallace, organizers of Docker Sydney who organized 13, and Jesse White, Luisa Morales and Doug Masiero from Docker NYC who organized 12.

One of our newest groups, Docker Havana, started last November and they already have +200 members! The founding organizers, Enrique Carbonell and Manuel Morejón are doing a fantastic job recruiting new members and have even started planning awesome meetups in other Cuban cities too!

In case you missed it, we’ve recently introduced a Docker Community Directory and Slack to further enable community building and collaboration. Our goal is to give everyone the opportunity to become a more informed and engaged member of the community by creating sub groups and channels based on location, language, use cases, interest in specific Docker-centric projects or initiatives.
