Join us at Union Pub, the "political sports bar", on Thursday, September 26th at 6pm for the inaugural Washington, DC Forecasting & Prediction Markets Meetup!
Expect a very casual meetup to meet and socialize with others interested in forecasting, prediction markets, political gambling, sports betting (Cowboys @ Giants should be on the TVs), or anything else relating to predicting the future.
We've got a private space in the back of Union Pub to facilitate good conversation. Look for the sign for the meetup. Note: due to this month's venue, this event is 21+. We're hoping to switch it up to somewhere more friendly to students under 21 in future months!
Who are we? We are prediction market traders (e.g. on Manifold, PredictIt, Kalshi, and Polymarket), forecasters (e.g. on Metaculus and Good Judgment Open), sports bettors (e.g. on FanDuel, DraftKings, and other sportsbooks), consumers of forecasting (or related) content (e.g. StarSpangledGamblers, Nate Silver’s Silver Bulletin, Scott Alexander’s Astral Codex Ten), effective altruists, and rationalists.
