Fab Labs: Build Transformative Learning Labs

What goes into creating a technical prototyping platform for innovation and invention? 


  • Are you building a Fab Lab as an extension of your research into digital fabrication and computation? Or to support your school’s STEM / STEAM initiatives?

    A Fab Lab isn’t complete until the instructors are comfortable using the tools and equipment. That’s why we include on-site professional development upon installation and offer ongoing on-site technical support.
