AISLER Exclusive Endorsement: New Sponsorship Opportunities available

Hey there,

Let’s be honest: Half of you have already emailed us at some point, asking if we could sponsor the Beautiful Boards for research in your lab, or workshops in your Maker space. And up until now, we have said yes – but there never was an official sponsorship program for these cases.

So, today, we are making it official. :orange_heart: If you are building hardware that pushes the limits, or make hardware less hard by teaching how to create it, we will fund the fabrication of your custom PCBs. You handle the component sourcing, the routing, and the inevitable soldering burns; we will supply the Beautiful Boards underneath.

Choose Your Sponsorship Track

To make sure we are supporting you in the right way, we have created these official tracks tailored to your specific engineering needs:

The New Additions

  • Research Labs: For academic and private labs requiring rapid PCB iteration for experimental hardware.
  • Maker Labs, Hacker spaces or Fab Labs: For innovators prototyping open-source hardware and hosting workshops. Let’s Make Hardware Less Hard together. :orange_heart:

The Classics

  • Student Teams: We have proudly backed student innovation for years. See some of their projects here.
  • Hardware Influencers & Content Creators: We fund the PCBs for your content and provide exclusive discount vouchers, so your community can build along with you.
  • Open Source Hardware Projects: Dedicating your time to open designs that benefit the wider engineering world? We want to support your prototyping phase by funding the bare boards you need to perfect your layout.

How to apply for a sponsorship

We dislike long application processes just as much as you do. So let’s do this straightforward:

  • Review the specific details and requirements on your chosen track page linked above.
  • Send us a quick email outlining what you are planning to build. Keep it brief and technical.
  • We will arrange a short, informal meeting to discuss your hardware and get your sponsorship set up.
