Hardwired - A happy hour for people building physical things, from prototype to manufacturing

꩜ Building physical things? Come meet your people! ꩜ Hardwired is for anyone bringing hardware to life, at any point in the supply chain - from designing and prototyping to sourcing parts, manufacturing, and assembly. If you working in... RobotsConsumer electronics / AI devicesDIY hardware creations (ex: cyberdecks)Weird side projectsManufacturing - processes, machines, factories, etcSupply ChainIndustrial Designanything else in the hardware creation process ... you belong here! ꩜ We’re gathering at TIAT amid the Every Thing Computer show, surrounded by 45 hardware art works exploring what computers can be. We’ll have hardware founders, supply chain experts, artists, and more in the room. Come see the cool devices people are building, hear the ideas they’re dreaming up, and share your own. Grab a drink, trade tales of bringing hardware to life, and meet your next collaborator, supplier, or friend who also has a drawer full of very specific resistors or a rolodex of manufacturers. ꩜ Agenda: 6:30 - 7:00 - mingle, check out the show, pizza7:00 - 7:30 - quick intros for everyone to know each other7:30 - 8:30 - mingle Bring your latest build if it travels! ꩜ Drinks and light bites are sponsored by Era, the company building software for intelligent AI devices that anyone can make their own. They’re making hardware, have been to Shenzhen multiple times, and are exploring a world of vibe-makeable devices. Above all, they’d love to share what they’ve learned and grow a community of people who literally build each other up! ꩜ tiat is the intersection of art & technology! we are an experimental gallery for creative technologists to experiment, exhibit, and expand their practice. ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ tiat is 501c3 nonprofit, our EIN is: 39-3448606.
