In 2006 Wikimania in Boston there was a brief, informal meetup of chapter committee, existing chapters boards members and people thinikg to establish their own chapters. I don't know if it was the results of only this meeting but several weeks/months after this meeting Wikimedia Israel, Wikimedia Taiwan and Wikimedia Netherlands were established mainly by people who attended this meeting.
IIRC there was also provision for chapters people to get together on the day after the Frankfurt Wikimania ended in 2005.
