“Doers” not just Thinkers, they want tangible proof that their idea works.
Creative Remix Culture / Demo Culture
Who is making?
• >500 makerspaces in the US
• >135 million makers
• >150,000 attendees of Bay Area Maker Faire

Today, the internet has added new potential for collaboration between people. However, the physical space is still very important.
First Industrial Revolution: Mechanical
Second Industrial Revolution: Computing
Third Industrial Revolution: Mechanical + Computing
“The Maker movement is what happens
when the Web meets the real world.
[It’s] the third industrial revolution.”
Chris Anderson
Former Editor-in-Chief of WIRED magazine
Author of “The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business is Selling Less of More”
Author of “Makers: The New Industrial Revolution”
Founder of GeekDad
Early Example: The Homebrew Computer Club
Apple found its first customers and received development feedback via The Homebrew Computer Club (an early maker community)
Maker Culture: Three Embodiments
MAKE Magazine (2005) Maker Faire (2006) Makerspaces
Maker Culture: Modern Drivers
The new potential comes from of the combination of the physical and computer power.
Other important drivers:
Economic uncertainty = desire for self-reliance, hands on understanding and control
Distributed Manufacturing = costs of digital fabrication rapidly shrinking
Sharing/Open Culture = collaboration, online and worldwide, reference platforms
Why Now?
Internet
Collaboration
Knowledge sharing Platforms: GitHub, Instructables, Thingiverse.com
MOOCs
Crowdsourcing
Crowdfunding: Kickstarter, Indiegogo, FlyingV
Rise of the Sharing Economy: Airbnb, Uber, TaskRabbit
Access to new technologies
Digital Fabrication: additive manufacturing, CNC milling, laser cutting
Why Now?
Cost of Tools and other Equipment
New Material Availability
Open Source Platforms
Hardware: Arduino, Raspberry Pi
Design: OpenDesk
Local Manufacturing
Distributed Manufacturing
Current buzz-worthy examples
3D Printing - MakerBot, RepRap, Form Labs, Shapeways
UAV/ROV Drones - 3D Robotics, DJI, OpenROV
Personal Payments - Square
DIY Marketplaces - Etsy.com and Pinkoi.com
Green Tech - Upcycling movement, fixing existing tech and reuse
Each is an entire industry created in the past 5 years with the Maker Culture playing a large role.
Company Success Stories: Square
Summary: Square is a small credit card reader that plugs into the headphone jack on a smart phone and facilitates person-to-person credit card transactions of any amount. It was developed, prototyped, and the first production batches made at Techshop. The company’s valuation in January 2014 was $5 billion. [http://www.squareup.com]
Also see Square Helper, an accessory product for Square from another individual working with a 3D printer : http://www.squarehelper.com
Company Success Stories: MakerBot
Summary: MakerBot is a consumer-focused 3D printing company that got it’s start out of NYC Resistor, an early Hackerspace in New York (building on the open source RepRap project). In June of 2013 MakerBot was sold to industrial 3D printing company Stratasys for $403 million in stock. With their recent success they have become a poster child for media looking to cover aspects of 3D printing and the industry.

What are the benefits of a Maker Community?
Increased pace of innovation
Pooling and Sharing Resources provides more people with access to emerging tech
Reducing cost of entry to starting up
Forming foundation for “Start-Up” Capital Environment
What are the benefits of a community to a Maker?
Cross-disciplinary experience fosters creative solutions
Interaction speeds iteration
Feedback maintains perspective
Shared experience creates knowledge faster
How to foster such a community?
Build an Integrated Startup Space
Coworking Space + Makerspace
= Ultimate Space for Innovators
What is a Coworking Space + Makerspace?
A Collaborative Learning Environment
Shared spaces, tools, and knowledge
More than just space and tools
Community
Culture
Content
Challenges to “Makers”
1. Access to Space
2. Access to Equipment
3. Access to Capital
Bring #1 & #2 together and you get physical, proven examples for #3 to invest in.
Bigger Model: Urban Revitalization
NewLab
Located at the Naval Ship Yards in Brooklyn, NY
Highlighted by Obama in a recent speech as an example for building a core to new development.
Why we like it:
It is big and ambitious, but that means it will have broader reach
Size, scope, and government ties help them get corporate sponsorship in the form of advanced equipment.
Massive repurposing of building in need of renewal, but maintaing historic relevance.
Space Revilatization
