In Massachusetts, makerspaces tend to emerge near centers of strong engineering talent such as MIT, WPI, Olin College and UMass. They’ve carved out workspaces in the gateway cities of Worcester, Springfield, Lowell, Taunton, Somerville and Haverhill. How will these creative communities advance the work of hardware innovators who find themselves at the nexus of design, engineering and technology? How will these innovations in manufacturing contribute direct and indirect economic benefits to Massachusetts? Join in on a stimulating conversation with our panelists including:
