4th Munich Hardware Meetup
We're looking forward to our fourth Munich Hardware Meetup, this time hosted at the FORA headquarters in the heart of Munich. You’ll get the chance to explore the FORA space and hear an introduction to its vision, followed by an inspiring talk from navel robotics on building robots with a human touch. And of course, there will be plenty of time for networking with fellow hardware and robotics enthusiasts.
Hardware Meetups happen in over 30 cities around the world, helping bring together founders, engineers, and other hardware professionals to networks, share insights, and collaborate with one another.
Our presenters
As founder of FORA, Darius Göttert is building a place for builders in the heart of Munich — a space to bring together makers and startup founders.

For this meetup, Darius will not only be our speaker but also our host, giving attendees the chance to experience the FORA space firsthand and hear his introduction to the vision behind it.
