I think you can do most of what you need out of the box:

- Create a group for each ‘meet’
- Create a category for each ‘meet’
  - set permissions so that category is only visible to the group

- Create an intro topic in the category to invite folks to
- Use the [bulk invite system](https://meta.discourse.org/t/sending-bulk-user-invites/16468) to invite users to the group
