Berkeley.
Chapter 06.
“Bay Area builders, this one's for you. Coming soon.”
What this chapter will be.
“The Bay Area produced the modern technology industry. Chapter 06 will make sure Berkeley students are building the next one.”
A dedicated builder lab on the Berkeley campus. Open late. Built for people who ship things. Currently being secured.
A curated cohort of Berkeley builders — every major, every background, one standard. The people you will build your first company with are already on your campus.
Chapter 06 connects Berkeley to every other Comet Foundry campus globally. Your co-founder might be at UTD. Your first hire might be at MIT. The network is the asset.
Four Labs.
Every chapter runs all four. No exceptions. No substitutions. This is what's coming to Berkeley.
Build Lab
Make things.
Weekend build sprints, prototyping sessions, and open workshop hours with the hardware bench and dev tools. Show up with an idea, leave with a v1.
Think Lab
Have an opinion.
Mentorship, research discussions, and 1:1 feedback sessions. Bring a half-formed argument and leave with a sharper one — preferably a controversial one.
Network Lab
Meet people.
Demo nights, founder dinners, and industry partnerships. The useful kind of networking — the kind where you actually stay in touch.
After Hours
Touch grass. 😂
Informal hangouts, game nights, and the community that makes the other three labs worth showing up for. Occasionally, we go outside.
One Semester. Three Phases.
The first open house. Meet the community. Form teams. Pitch ideas. Everything starts here.
COMING SOONBuild. Ship. Learn. Iterate. Critique nights. Peer feedback. Scale. This is where the work happens.
COMING SOONShow what you made. Tell your story. Celebrate. The room where it all ships.
COMING SOONThe team is forming.
Chapter 06 leadership is currently forming. These are the roles that will run this chapter once we open. If you are a Berkeley student who wants to be a founding officer — this is how that happens.
Nothing built here yet.
That is not a problem. It is an opportunity.
The first build from Chapter 06 will be listed right here. It could be yours.
