14th Zurich Hardware Meetup
Welcome to the 14th Zurich Hardware Meetup!
Every month, we bring together founders, professionals, students and more, who share a passion for Hardware and building tangible products.
For our first meetup of 2025, we're covering the cross over of Hardware and Education:
How can we design courses that inspire students to pursue Hardware disciplines?
What are key resources needed to impart a strong Hardware education?
What complementary skills are often overlooked?
And many more questions!
