Are you a Master student at EPFL? Have you ever thought of being a tech innovator?  Are you ready to take your semester project to another level?

The China Hardware Innovation Camp (CHIC), organized in collaboration with swissnex China, will allow you to discover one of the most dynamic hubs for hardware innovation.

In the framework of your semester project you will go from idea to production in less than 30 working days. Your team will engage in sourcing, assembly, prototyping and manufacturing a connected hardware device. During the semester you will have to interact with a local prototyping company to make your project a success.

In addition you will have the opportunity to understand the Hong Kong/Shenzhen eco-system by visiting some leading organizations in Southern China (Huawei, Foxconn, Hong Kong Science & Technology Park, etc.).
