manufacturing.</p> <p> </p> <p>We'll cover the basics of the IEEE Deep Tech Business and Manufacturing Checklists, then break into one on one Q&A and mentoring sessions. We're focused on helping you speed past your potential startup roadblocks. These Checklists will be available online in 2024, but come back here for more in person bootcamps, both at IEEE conferences and separately.</p> <p> </p> <p>This bootcamp is being held in person is hosted by Silicon Valley Robotics, Circuit Launch and the IEEE RAS SCV/OEB/SF Jt.
