Hello!

Just a reminder that our 2nd Hardware Startups Meetup is tonight at 19/2-6 New St, Richmond, 3121, from 6pm - 8pm.  The agenda is below.

I'm excited to tell you all that my Hardware Startup got into the Melbourne Accelerator Programme (MAP) with the Melbourne School of Engineering, which means that my startup will receive $20,000, office space and mentoring!  So I'll share a bit about that tonight in a lightning talk.

I look forward to hearing what you all have been up to, as well as discussing the joys of product development, manufacturing, marketing, raising funds, etc.!

See you tonight!
Marita



Agenda for tonight:
Based on all your suggestions, and last time's experiences, here's a loose agenda:

6:00pm - Hellos / Pizza Ordering / Talking
6:15pm - Lightning talks (2 mins max each)
6:30pm - Speed dating (bring a few issues/ problems/ concerns you have with your startup and talk to every other person there about it)
7:15pm - Eat Pizza/ Talking
7:30pm - Hacker RoundTable, people talk about what they do and what issues the group can help them with
8:00pm - End

Thanks for organizing. Congrats again on the MAP funding. Had a great time chatting; sorry for potentially talking too much :)

Aside:
Here's a link if you are interested in the eye-in-hand robotics research I mentioned. My dates seem to be right regarding 80s-90s but there seems to be quite a bit from non-Japanese labs too!
