Innovations in wearable technologies of biosensors and nano materials

Hi Enablers,

We want to host the first offline meetup event by inviting two guest speakers, Dr. Koohyung Lee, CTO from NeuroSky and Jay Ha, CEO from Materials&System Inc. on 26th March. They have great stories of developing the emerging wearable technologies in biosensors and nanofiber materials.

Here are some more information about our guest speakers and companies.
