Austin Hardware Startup Meetup

We're a group for all things surrounding hardware startups and scaleups. The purpose of this group is to bring together folks interested in starting, launching, and scaling businesses around physical hardware products and to grow the Austin hardware community, raise awareness of hardware startups, increase access to resources, hear from industry-leading experts, and learn from and help each other.

We've been dormant, but not dead, so stay tuned as we get the ball rolling here in 2026 to bring great hardware events back to Austin! If you are not yet a member, be sure to join here on this page, and you will be notified via email for each new event that comes up.

If your company would like to sponsor this meetup in the future, contact the Chair of the group, Kevin Mako.

Sponsored by Product Startup, the leading consulting and advisory service for physical product startups and hardware brands, and The Product Startup Podcast, the world's leading podcast for the hardware product development industry.
