Design Competitions

These kinds of competitions or hackathons range widely in duration and target audience. I'm looking to continue collaborating with NextFab to bring maker experiences for all age groups, but most foreseeably with other high school, college, or professional groups. I find that opportunities for innovation are sometimes stifled at the corporate level and these short-term commitments are great for team building, revitalization, and generation of new ideas. I can also see similar competitions doing very well with organizations with their own makerspaces already, such as universities. Makerspaces are too often underutilized. Let's get making!
