There’s a growing community of makers and hackers in India. In fact, we have a bunch of community members, readers, and customers from India here at Dangerous Prototypes.
Yet as Maker Faires are sweeping the Americas, East Asia, Europe, and even the Middle East, India has yet to pop up on the radar. On our Geek Tour of India we’ll meet with hobbyists, hackerspaces, manufacturers, and resellers in three cities and show you the electronics scene in the world’s second most populous country. Here is our initial schedule:
Mumbai: Sunday 21st to Monday 22nd October

Bangalore: Tuesday 23rd October
- Bangalore wholesale parts markets tour
- Protocentral visit
- Manufacturer visit
Bangalore: Wednesday 24th October
