Description
Objectives of the MakerNet Consortium:
"This pilot project was the first step in a long-term mission intended to:
§ Design globally, make locally: Make it possible for anyone, anywhere to share and collaborate on open source product designs that benefit humanity; and for manufacturers close to the point of need to then adapt those designs for local reality and turn them into physical products.
§ Connect makers to markets: Create business models that enable makers, manufacturers, and makerspaces to become suppliers to their communities and regions
§ Grow Industry 4.0: Develop and support the evolution of sustainable models of production and consumption."
