As the review chair for this year’s Open Hardware Summit, I’m very pleased to announce that the call for papers is now open:

The Open Source Hardware Association invites submissions for the fourth annual Open Hardware Summit, to be held September 6, 2013 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The Open Hardware Summit is the world’s first comprehensive conference on open hardware; a venue to discuss and draw attention to the rapidly growing Open Source Hardware movement. The Open Hardware Summit is a venue to present, discuss, and learn about open hardware of all kinds. The summit examines open hardware and its relation to other issues, such as software, design, business, law, and education.

We are seeking proposals for talks, posters, and demos from individuals and groups working with open hardware and related areas.

Submissions are due by JUNE 21, 2013.  Please see the complete call for papers for additional details.

The 2013 Open Hardware Summit has also opened its call for sponsors; please click here if you are interested in helping to sponsor the summit.
