I believe that when you are first meeting someone for the first time it is perfectly ok to ask the standard cookie cutter questions like:

  • Where do you work?
  • What tech stack do you work on? (followed up with "That sounds cool, have you been working on anything that you are excited about lately?")
  • What do you think of the event so far?
    • Where are you from?

And so on. The trick is using their response to continue the conversation (and not just listing the questions one after the other).
