About us
This group is for members and visitors to Makespace, a community workshop in Cambridge, UK. The meetups are organised by community members both in the space and elsewhere in Cambridge.
We would love to meet:
- Community members, enthusiasts, and educational groups who could benefit from a lab in which to work together, network, socialise, and draw on the expertise of others
- People working within local industries looking to innovate in ways that require new skills, equipment and contacts
- Companies and consultancies that support innovation and prototyping, and who could provide training, support, leading to the sale of their services
- Innovators needing to produce physical prototypes to further their ideas
If this could include you, please help us maintain and grow Makespace by joining now, telling us:
- Who you are, and any company/group affiliation
- What you could contribute to and/or how you could benefit from Makespace
- Any other ideas, requirements or suggestions to improve Makespace
