About us
Chiang Mai Professionals, Expats, and Digital Nomads is a community-focused group dedicated to fostering meaningful connections between local residents, international expats, and digital nomads in Chiang Mai. We organize diverse events designed to encourage interaction, networking, and deep conversations. Our gatherings range from relaxed brunches and business idea exchanges to enriching discussions aimed at building strong, supportive relationships within the community. Everyone interested in creating genuine connections, sharing experiences, or exploring collaboration opportunities is warmly invited to join us.
Our Origin & Mission
- The Beginning: Founded in 2022 by Dr. Stefan Rucman to address the lack of community in Chiang Mai, this initiative started as a simple WhatsApp group. The goal was to build an effort-driven project to bridge the missing parts of the city's social fabric.
- The Evolution: We have since grown into the longest-running post-COVID community in Chiang Mai. By moving to Meetup, the group expanded rapidly and now spans dozens of dedicated organizers and event creators.
- The Vision: We strive to offer something consistent and repeatable in one centralized place—a welcoming environment where professionals, expats, digital nomads, and locals can connect, collaborate, and find their place of belonging.
