October 7, 6-9pm PT 795 Folsom Street, Suite 100, San Francisco.

An evening for hardware founders, engineers, operators, & people curious about robots, devices, & physical products. Meet the builders, explore prototypes up close, & talk through how things get made.

We're awarding $2,500 in total cash prizes for standout demos. Bring your robot, device, or prototype & show us what you've built.

You don't need to bring a project to attend. Bring a friend who's interested in hardware & have them RSVP too.

The evening
6:00pm: Arrivals, demos, food, & conversations.
7:00pm: A brief welcome & optional two-minute builder introductions.
Afterward: More demos & time to meet the teams.
9:00pm: Wrap-up.

Builders & prototypes will be around the room, so you can ask questions directly & spend time with the projects that interest you. We'll share named demo highlights as the lineup is confirmed.

Want to showcase your robot, device, or prototype? Submit your demo details & equipment or setup needs here:
https://toolsforenlightenment.org/events/hardware-showcase

We'll follow up to confirm your space & work through the setup.

This event is a part of #SFTechWeek-a week of events hosted by VCs & startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com

Cushman & Wakefield

Hardware needs more than an office. Cushman & Wakefield helps companies find spaces where they can build, test, store inventory, & expand without outgrowing the room six months later.

Pilot

Hardware accounting gets complicated fast. Pilot helps founders understand where the money is going, what each unit actually costs, & which tax credits they may be leaving behind.

Rho
Rho is the all-in-one banking platform for startups & the accountants supporting them. With banking setup in minutes, up to 2% cashback cards, & powerful tools for managing spend, paying bills, & closing the books, Rho helps high-growth startups move fast & stay focused, backed by support that goes to the end of the earth to help you win.

Rho is a fintech company, not a bank. Checking & card services are provided by Webster Bank, N.A., member FDIC; savings account services are provided by American Deposit Management Co. & its partner banks.



Spot by Tools for Enlightenment

Insurance usually becomes urgent right before a lease is signed or a customer is ready to buy. Spot helps founders understand what they need, why they need it, & what it should actually cost.
