My answer to Can I promote an online/virtual/ webinar event through Meetup? on Quora

No. That’s specifically mentioned as something Meetup should not be used for in their community guidelines: Meetup’s Community Guidelines

“Meetup is not a place for groups that... Don’t meet face-to-face, such as a webinar, teleseminar, or conference call”
