I see people using both, “I am looking forward to meet you” and “I am looking forward to meeting you” – but which one is correct?
You can use both, and you’ll be understood just fine. But, “I look forward to meeting you,” is used more widely.
In most phrases, “to” is usually followed by an infinitive, but this one is an exception – “I look forward to”, is followed by a gerund, not a verb. So the one that uses a gerund – “I look forward to meeting you” is the correct one.

The sentence ‘I look forward to meeting with you’ is grammatically correct.
It is correct to say I look forward to meeting you. But it is incorrect to use its variant -I look forward to meet you.
Another grammatically correct version of expressing this phrase would be – I am looking forward to meeting with you.
Any phrasal verb must be followed by a gerund. In this the case gerund is meeting.
