Montréal Hardware Meetup #5 @Hurleys | Human‑Powered Tech: What Are We Breaking Next?
Hey Hardtech crew, let's go again !
Personal IoT and wearable tech are no longer gadgets: they’re becoming the next human interface.
And between us... There’s bold stuff cooking under the surface :)
This edition aims to bring together the builders shaping that shift: the ones turning sensor devices, smart systems, home robotics, and every interface we’re bold enough to reinvent into the next frontier of Hardtech!
Expect a room full of people who prototype, break, rethink, and rebuild. A space where fearless innovators, hardware entrepreneurs, and curious engineers all meet to push what’s possible.
Let's build the rise of Personal IoT & Wearable Tech!
