In \"Nice to meet you again!\", you can translate \"meet\" as\"见到\". But here, since you meet him or her for the first time, the best way for you to translate \"meet\" is \"认识\", the implied meaning of which is that \" You feel glad to begin to know him or her\", not just \"to see him or her by chance.\"
