What is the required time commitment of a local City Leader?

This differs per city (size). City Leaders in metropolises like London, Barcelona and New York organize weekly (community) hangouts and have the ambition to make The Offline Club their full-time job. City Leaders in smaller cities host weekly/monthly events, where The Offline Club is more of a part-time side project.
