The submission outlines a local meetup initiative ('Green and Renewable Energy' MeetUp) organized by a Birmingham-based recruitment agency. While the underlying agency appears to be a legitimate small business (est. 2019), the submission data is heavily flawed. Claims such as 'audience reach: everyone' and 'evidence of traction: most people have used my product' are demonstrably false and hyperbolic. No verifiable metrics for the meetup group (e.g., member count, event frequency) were provided. The project demonstrates minimal scope (local events) and standard utility without technological innovation.

Description
We wanted to create a meetup group that supported the future plans and goals of our city, our SMART CITY. But we didn’t want to create yet another meetup, we want to make a difference to our futures by not only inviting the most innovative tech professionals and businesses in the sectors but by empowering our future next-gen, with similar interests and visions and to give them a platform to voice their ambitions, opinions and showcase their potential. We are creating Birmingham’s first Green and Renewable Energy, Sustainability and IOT Tech MeetUp.
