Here are three ways that people can use the space:

Apply for the HARDWARE.co Accelerator Program

The HARDWARE.co Accelerator program accepts early stage teams and individuals building great hardware products and startups. Over the 14-day free program, startups receive access to 50+ mentors to advise on business and hardware topics. The program culminates in a public demo day to pitch their idea to the community and a number of investors.

For the first time, HARDWARE.co Accelerator Teams will also enjoy full access to the HARDWARE.co Lab facilities as part of the program. This will include full access to the lab as a workspace, as well as contact with the Lab’s team to advise on prototyping, technical manufacturing and testing.

The application process for the accelerator is open until the 28th of January.
