Morphology
The meaning 'a meeting for a number of people' is directly and compositionally derived from 'group' (a unit of people) + 'meeting' (a planned gathering). This straightforward noun+noun combination is cross-linguistically common and follows regular English compounding patterns, so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will readily understand it.
Etymology
The noun group meeting comes from a simple picture: a group of people sit together for a meeting to share news and make decisions. So, the phrase means 'a planned meeting of several people to talk about something'.
