As part of the IEEE Ottawa Robotics Competition’s (ORC) 15th anniversary, we will be giving away ten robotic arms so teams can join the ORC and compete in our latest Green Arm Challenge.
Organized by the IEEE Ottawa Section (and now in collaboration with Machine Learning Ottawa Meetup), IEEE Ottawa Lunch and Learn is an initiative to bridge the gap and derive synergy between Ottawa industry, academia, and government. The initiative, on a monthly basis, brings a speaker from either industry, academia, or government to the heart of the Kanata Tech Hub.
We are pleased to announce that IEEE Ottawa Lunch and Learn is set to grow in 2017.

*New Venue for IEEE Ottawa Lunch and Learn*
Initially launched at March Networks in November 2016, the initiative has received tremendous feedback and has been extremely well attended. As such the initiative is moving it into a larger and more formal venue: The Marshes Golf Club (central to the Kanata Tech Hub).
*Join us in Early March*
