Hackaday's First Hardware Conference

SuperCon will take place November 14th and 15th 2015 in San Francisco at
Dog Patch Studios. Talks and workshops will cover hardware, engineering,
creativity in technical design, product design, prototyping and
projects. We'll also be announcing the winners of the Hackaday Prize!

We wanted to attend a super fun and creative conference with technical
talks that aren't overrun with sales pitches. So with your help, we're
building one just for all of us!

For more details, updates and discussions about the event follow on

If your proposal is great, there are materials stipends, and possibly
travel stipends available to get you up to San Francisco for this
exciting weekend.

Not sure what your proposal should be about?

The theme is Hardware Creation, so any project or product that builds
something from scratch or repurposes something will fit. Got too many
ideas? Submit up to five to Sophi
Kravitz[https://hackaday.io/sophikravitz] (sophi at hackaday.com) or Chris
Gammell[https://hackaday.io/chrisgammell] for direction.

Help others shine - get them to submit a proposal

We'd really appreciate it if you could spread the word among your
hardware hacker friends via social media (tag @hackaday), Hackerspaces,
IRC, newsgroups, meetups, forums, etc. We're asking for proposals from
our worldwide community, so pass on to anyone you'd think would be
interested, or give them a nudge if you think they'd be great.
