What area is that? Have you tried posting an announcement to see if you get any responses?
South Sweden, specifically near gotenburg. I doubt there are enough rationalists in the entirety of Sweden to make a meetup, I've never heard of any single one. That and a few other things makes my p of such a post being worthwhile to small for me to even measure.
I thought it was a hotbed of futurism, although not on any stronger evidence than the Swedish willingness to try change. Anders Sandberg and Nick Bostrom have both left, but I bet there's more there. Ask Anders and Nick, to start.
I would have too, although not on any stronger evidence than a wealthy Scandinavian country being sure to harbor plenty of smart atheists.
