Open Hardware Meets Business

Open Hardware Meets Business
You have built something, or you are working on an open hardware project right now. Maybe in your basement, on weekends, or as a side project at work. It works, people like it, and you keep wondering: could I actually sell this? Or you have already been there: you have turned an open project into a product and learned the hard way what it takes.

This is the first meetup of Open Hardware meets Business, a community for makers and engineers who want to take that step. We help each other turn hobby hardware projects into products people can buy or back.
