German social event which helps you to get some friends (sopuli.xyz)

I'm not a german fellow, but I have a netizen friend who feels incredibly anxious and wasn't able to get friends in school, due to immense bullyings. They only have friends from the internet, and they have tried to socialize in a fishbowl event but they weren't able to get a friend there as I feel it.

In my country there is an event organization called havervagy, which has a bunch of events, where everyone is spliited into 3-4 people sized groups where they can get to know eachother. Do you perhaps have something similar to this one in Germany? My friend lives in West Germany, closer to the border of Netherlands.

CCC reminds me: While it is a huge convention and the talks and crowds don't feel personal at all, they always need volunteers in groups of 2-3 to watch the fire exits.

Maybe a thing they are passionate about needs small groups of volunteers? I'd assume that there's always some downtime to talk to one another.

Yeah, it's hard to get to know people that are running around. But you can sit by the workshops or the representatives of some clubs and talk to them. Helping out and being an "angel" always helps. Haven't done that myself, so I can't say how social this is.
