🚀 Turn your research into real‑world impact!

Curious about how to commercialize your scientific or engineering innovation? Join us for the i2I (Invention to Innovation) Skills Training Info Session and learn how this NSERC‑supported program helps researchers build an entrepreneurial mindset and move ideas from the lab to the marketplace.

The i2I Skills Training Program is uniquely designed for science‑based ventures—addressing high uncertainty, long development timelines, and capital‑intensive pathways common to STEM and health innovations.

• Program training costs are covered through NSERC funding
• Eligible participants receive an additional $3,000 stipend in the second term

Your weekend, play-by-play 📋

Friday 🚀
6 PM kick-off. Meet your team. First ideas spark. No pressure — just vibe, energy, and 100 smart people in one room.

Saturday 💻☕
Build day. Code, debug, test EEG signals. Mentors everywhere. Coffee/breakfast/lunch on us. By evening, your prototype exists.

SUNDAY 🏆
Demos. 5 minutes to show judges what you built. Winners announced. Celebration.

One weekend. Real hardware. Real innovation. Real team.

You've got this. See you tonight.

Plot twist: BCIs aren't sci-fi anymore. They're real. And neurotechnology is one of the fastest-growing fields in tech and medicine.

Next weekend, 100+ students will be building with real EEG hardware. Here's the thing — the best BCI innovations come from neuroscientists, psychologists, and biology researchers who understand why the signal matters, not just how to process it.

If you study neuroscience, psychology, or biology — this event is YOURS. We need your brain. (The biological kind.)

A few spots still available. Registration closes March 18. Come build something that actually matters.

In one week, NeuroHack 2026 launches.

Over 100 students have registered across all disciplines — computer scientists, neuroscientists, designers, business students, psychologists, engineers. Next Friday evening they'll form interdisciplinary teams and spend the next 48 hours prototyping brain-computer interface applications using research-grade EEG hardware.

To everyone registered: come ready to collaborate. The mentors are excited. The hardware is ready. Your team is waiting.

See you next Friday.
