Humanmade Hardware Accelerator Demo Day

​Humanmade Hardware Accelerator Demo Day

​Join us as the 2026 Humanmade Hardware Accelerator cohort takes the stage to showcase six months of building, testing, and refining their companies.

​Over the past 24 weeks, these founders have worked through every stage of early hardware development—from defining the right problem to solving, to building prototypes, testing with real users, refining their designs, planning for manufacturing, and preparing for investment. Demo Day is where that work comes together.

​Each team will present their company, share what they’ve learned throughout the program, and demonstrate the products they’ve been building. After the presentations, attendees will have the opportunity to meet the founders, see prototypes up close, ask questions, and connect with fellow entrepreneurs, investors, engineers, manufacturers, and members of the Bay Area startup community.

​Whether you’re interested in hardware startups, product design, manufacturing, investing, or simply want to see what is being built locally, Demo Day offers a chance to meet the next generation of founders before they’re household names.

​What to expect:

• ​Live presentations from the 2026 accelerator cohort

• ​Working hardware demonstrations and prototypes

• ​Opportunities to meet the founders

• ​Networking with the local startup and maker community

• ​Light refreshments

​This event is free and open to the public, but registration is requested.
