"Go meet" is a shortened form of saying "go and meet". By saying "go meet" we are able to convey the idea that we have to leave where we are, and go to a different location in order to meet someone. This is a casual form that you will hear often in conversation. It is very common to use this form of go + verb, not just with "meet". Ex: Let's go meet them now. Ex: Do you want to go see a movie. Ex: Can you go get the paper cups? Ex: Go help your brother with the groceries.
