Small Events
Purpose
Action this scale is directed towards convening a focused and small group of people (2 - 20) to address a particular challenge or theme.
They are 1) targeted and reasonable for the duration and participant size, 2) low budget, 3) nearly 100% community-driven.
For example, rather than hosting a meet-up for web developers (very general and hard to gauge the relevance), an example small live actions would instead target experienced developers from news organizations to design HTML5 applications for visualizing raw data sources. Very focused, very concrete.
This type of meet-up could be held in a bar or a coworking space or an internet cafe anywhere in the world.
