Hosted by Pensa

°ᴗ°From prototypes to production, hardware founders navigate complex challenges: sourcing, scaling, funding - you name it. At Pensa, we believe these challenges are best solved when leaders share what’s working — and what’s not — with each other.
In this special SF Tech Week edition of Pancakes* with (*full disclosure: no pancakes are served), we’ll bring together 10–12 hardware founders and leaders for an intimate open breakfast conversation about the challenges of the hardware ecosystem. The topics we discuss are determined by the attendees to ensure an interesting and rewarding conversation, but often range from design and engineering decisions to manufacturing strategies, fundraising, and founders’ lessons learned.
What to expect:
Pancakes* is a small, curated gathering designed for candid discussion, peer learning, and building lasting founder networks. Whether you’re iterating on your first prototype or scaling production, you’ll leave with fresh perspectives, potential collaborators, and a stronger support network.
Pensa participants:
Mark Prommel – Partner & Industrial Design Lead
Marco Perry – Co-founder, Partner & Engineering Lead
Kathy Larchian – Co-founder, Partner & Business Lead
Pensa is an innovation studio that brings product design, strategy, and engineering together under one roof, to turn complexity into clarity and ideas into real-world products.
Wednesday, October 7 | 9:00–11:00 AM | San Francisco, CA (location TBA)
Participation is free, but space is limited and curated.
We look forward to meeting you!
