What we’re about
Portland Hardware is a place for hardware professionals, newbies, and the hardware-curious to connect, share projects & ideas, and learn from each other. We bring together a strong community of folks who are building businesses with physical products, be it a cold fusion engine or a bionic fork, but also wearables or robots or just about anything.
Whether you're an founder, designer, engineer, investor, or exploring the hardware startup ecosystem for the first time- come join us for talks, networking, innovation, and good times!

Mix it up and triple down for a special crossover evening to celebrate Teardown in conjunction with our friends at Hardware Happy Hour and Dorkbot at the McMenamins Broadway Pub in Northeast Portland.
In addition to mingling amongst these three fantastic communities, this will be a great opportunity to connect with visitors in town for Teardown, a hardware conference packed with talks, workshops, and installations.
