Hack Hotel is first of its kind in Shanghai. It provide hackers/tinkers a home away from home to work on projects with a community of hackers to collaborate with and learn from. The Hack Hotel will open in a temporary location for 6 weeks as a demonstration of the concepts in hope to attract large enough community to make the idea viable for self-sustainable growth.

This meeting will feature the following:

Open Source Hardware: what and why?
Hack Hotel: the concept and the space
Some Arduino and other project demo
Hack Hotel kick off projects: a few projects we’d like to do and looking for hackers to join

 

It's the brainchild of 3 peculiar characters: a Chinese, an Icelander and an Italian (yours truly here). It sounds like the opening line of a joke, but we are dead serious to have fun while we tinker with interesting projects.
