3rd Charlotte Hardware Meetup
Come join us for the 3rd Charlotte hardware Meetup for food, beverages and talks related to Engineering, Product Development, and Sustainability!
Whether you're a seasoned hardware developer, just starting out or even just curious, we would love for you to join.
This month we are highlighting the hardware ecosystem at UNC Charlotte! Our keynote speaker is Dr. Kyoung Hee Kim, professor of architecture, who has been prototyping microalgae-filled building façade systems since 2011. She will be supported by lighting talks and demos from 4 different student orgs as well as an introduction to the PORTAL building and its entrepreneurial ecosystem and the newly formed Charlotte Super Fab Lab.
🤖 Feel free to bring any prototypes or fun projects you're working on to share with the group.
Hardware Meetups happen across 30+ cities around the world, bringing together hardware professionals to network and learn from each other. We're excited to get things kicked off in Charlotte!
