As another introvert, I’ve found it quite valuable that when I do manage to strike up a conversation with someone at a meetup, I try to exchange social network or personal website details with them. Great way to make friends, find new meetups to attend through your new networks, and widen your horizons further!

It seems to also be popular these days that meetups have some sort of messaging platform, e.g. on Slack or Discord. That can also be an introvert-friendly way to get involved and explore what else is happening.
