element14 has just been announced as a sponsor of the Open Hardware Summit in NYC. The Summit occurs on September 23rd which is the Thursday just before World Maker Faire New York weekend (where element14 will have a booth!). If you are coming to Maker Faire, then be sure to arrive a couple days early and attend!
The schedule is packed with leaders from the Open Source & DIY community such as:
Limor Fried - Adafruit Industries
Phil Torrone - Adafruit & Make Magazine
Bruce Perens - Open Source Initiative
Chris Anderson - DIYdrones & Wired Editor-in-Chief
Massimo Banzi - Arduino
Leah Buechley - MIT Media Lab & Lilypad wearable Arduino
Gerald Coley - Texas Instruments & Beagle Board
Anyone else planning to attend on the Open Hardware Summit or Maker Faire? I hope to put some element14 usernames to faces!
Cheers,
Drew
