ASME ISHOW is a hardware-led social innovation accelerator for entrepreneurs/startups. Three virtual events—ISHOW India, ISHOW Kenya and ISHOW US—take place each year. ISHOW’s network of experts helps entrepreneurs navigate the challenges they encounter on their hardware journey to market.

ISHOW winners receive seed grants, technical support, design consultations, and a customized design and engineering review from experts at ISHOW Bootcamp, as well as a network through which participants can share their inventions globally.

ISHOW winners solve real-world challenges with world-changing innovations like:

  • A device that harvests water from dry desert air
  • A solar-powered chiller so off-the-grid farmers can get milk cold to market
  • A life-saving ventilator, built for under $20
Meet the 2020 winners and learn more about ASME ISHOW’s impact.
