matrix seminar "Innovation Hubs - FabLabs, Makerspaces, Student Laboratories and Co."
The power of the creative location in business development!
As a driver and innovator, as a business promoter or as an entrepreneur, do you want to develop the innovative power of your region? The Innovation Hubs seminar - FabLabs, Makerspaces, student laboratories and Co. provides inspiration and concrete starting points on how to get started on the path to more innovation.
Innovation Hub as an umbrella term for FabLabs, Makerspaces and more
The Innovation Hub is a central component on the way to more innovation. As a creative place, it develops the power for new things. As a generic term, the Innovation Hub stands for a large number of similar and related approaches (co-creation spaces, FabLab, makerspaces, open workshops, student laboratories, etc.), which often differ in terms of thematic orientation and objectives, but all have the same basic intention: Co-creative innovation promotion!
Specialist development, start-up support and technology development
But what concrete contribution do these places make to solving regionally important challenges? How does such a place of innovation act as an anchor for technology-oriented development, the development of skilled workers or for the promotion of start-ups? What role does physical space play in generating innovation? How does it support digitization? What happens in these places and what are they for?
Additional added value: networking & knowledge transfer
The shortage of skilled workers combined with the high demand for new technologies requires stronger networking and better knowledge transfer, especially in SMEs. In addition to strengthening one's own innovative strength, innovation hubs offer the opportunity to promote this necessary exchange. Depending on the focus, the concrete design can then be very different: with the focus on technological innovation, for example in the form of a fab lab, with the focus on securing skilled workers as a school laboratory or training location and with a focus on start-up support, for example as a creative place for prototyping .
