Pancakes* with PENSA is a breakfast gathering of 10-12 hardware startup leaders (*full disclosure: no pancakes are served). It is an open discussion & a great forum for learning & sharing. Our intent is to help support leaders of hardware start-ups & introduce them to other leaders, to learn from each other's experiences & create a network.

The topics we discuss are determined by the attendees joining the breakfast, to ensure an interesting & rewarding conversation.

Topics of Pancakes* have included:
Funding a hard goods business
Pricing strategies
Methods of scaling a hard goods business
