4th Paris Hardware Meetup | Hardware Built for Space
We are back with a new Paris Hardware Meetup, this time focused on Space! 🚀
From launch systems and satellites to propulsion, and now data centers in orbit, a new generation of companies is rethinking how we build for space.
And a lot of it is happening right here in Europe.
Our mission is simple: bring together the founders, engineers, and builders turning ambitious hardware into real systems.
Hardware Meetups bring together founders, engineers, and innovators in 50+ cities around the world to share ideas, showcase projects, and connect with the people shaping the future of hardware.
Paris and Europe are full of world-class space builders. Now is the time to bring them together!
We have a fantastic group of guest speakers:
Paul Lascombes, CTO at Exotrail
