About us

Silicon Valley Robotics is the largest, most exciting robotics cluster in the world and we will be hosting some great events and opportunities in the next year.

Wow -- some quotes from last night: "This is the best meetup I've ever been to!" and "Hands down the best hardware meetup around!" 

We are a member-led non-profit business association (501c6) promoting innovation and commercialization of robotics technology. We look forward to your involvement!

Bots and Bevs @ SVCTE

Silicon Valley Career Technical Education, 760 Hillsdale Avenue, San Jose, CA, US

Come Network with other Engineers, and also see a cool high school Mechatronics Engineering program
It's "Bots and Beverages" because it's at a school... so just school appropriate beverages will be served. But we will have good snacks.

  • Bring your robot demo and your deck!
  • We'll have an open mic for robotics demos or introductions.
  • Are you hiring? Let everyone know!
  • Want to present Your Company Technology or Demo Something Cool. Let me know, and I can provide you with a 15 min time slot

Big thanks to our hosts at Silicon Valley CTE
Come see STEAM Clown's (Jim Burnham's) SVCTE Mechatronics Engineering Class. This "Bots and Beverages" will be at Silicon Valley Career Technical Education High School.
Come hear a short presentation (10 min) by Mechatronics Engineering instructor Jim Burnham, learn how high school students are learning about Robotics. Get a short tour of the Mechatronics Engineering classroom, and see some Student projects. See how you can get involved with shaping the future of education.
