Details

We welcome anyone interested in any kind of hardware from beginner to expert: Arduino DIYers, engineers, hardware start up founders, e-textile experimenters, open source hardware-curious folks, LED lovers, chip designers, 3D printing enthusiasts or robotics geeks.

If you’re working on something even vaguely related or you have a favourite open hardware device you want to show off please do bring it along. No presentations, no pitch decks, just projects and conversation.

This event is a collaboration between folks from Hardware Happy Hour SF, Hardware Happy Hour PDX, Crowd Supply, Hackster and Studio 45.

We will have drinks and snacks available courtesy of Crowd Supply and Hackster (huge thank you to both!).

Join us and nerd out about open source electronics! More details and RSVP.

About the hosts

Hardware Happy Hour SF (run by Charlyn Gonda and Jonathan Beri) and Hardware Happy Hour PDX (run by Helen Leigh) are informal community meetups for anyone interested in hardware.

Crowd Supply is a crowdfunding and sales platform for open source hardware. They run the annual hardware conference Teardown (CFP and ticket sales open now!).

Studio 45 is a coworking and event space for creative technologists located in Bernal Heights that provides the workspace, tools, resources, and community to build a business making physical products. Learn more about their new 2024 community membership here.

Hackster connects developers and fosters a community of sharing, experimenting and learning.

Shout out to informal, who help Studio 45 make community collabs like this possible.
